The Asian Water Development Outlook 2020: Advancing Water Security Across Asia and the Pacific looks at the water security status in Asia and the Pacific and lays out policy recommendations to secure the region’s water supply.
Water security as defined in the report is the availability of an adequate quantity and quality of water to ensure safe, affordable, equitable and inclusive water supply and sanitation together with sustainable livelihoods and healthy ecosystems and manageable water-related risks.
The report measures water security across five key dimensions—rural household water security, economic water security, urban water security, environmental water security, and water-related disaster security.
