Water Futures Mobilizing Multi Stakeholder Action for Resilience 2025

Call to action Water systems are near a tipping point. Now is the moment for collaboration to build a more resilient future for the water systems on which all societies and businesses depend. Many opportunities exist to shift the unsustainable trajectory of water systems today and make them more resilient. The growing importance of water in the global agenda has created momentum and opportunity for public and private actors to act now. The landmark report by the Global Commission on the Economics of Water (GCEW) points to where action should be prioritized. This white paper marks a step towards putting the proposals of GCEW into action, by mobilizing private sector and multistakeholder platforms such as the private sector and multi-stakeholder platforms such as the Forum’s Water Futures Community. Further efforts by the Forum and its members will continue to advance the global water resilience agenda through thought leadership, innovation, collaboration and partnerships. The Water Futures Community will develop the pathways towards water resilience presented in this report through a series of dedicated working groups. Members of the Forum, from all industries, are invited to take part in this work. Water Futures: Mobilizing Multi-Stakeholder Action for Resilience 31
