As the world’s largest multilateral source of financing for water in developing countries, the World Bank is working closely with partners to achieve “A Water-Secure World for All,” by sustaining water resources, delivering services, and building resilience.
Water is crucial for economic and social progress, essential for health, agriculture, energy production, environmental stewardship, and job creation. The availability and management of water determine whether poor girls receive education, whether cities are livable, and whether industries and rural villages can cope with the effects of floods or droughts.
Water security ranks as one of the highest global risks affecting development and is crucial for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Effective management of water resources and access to reliable water and sanitation services are essential to address the sustainable development challenges of the 21st century, including human development, livable cities, climate change, food security, and energy security. With water scarcity impacting over 40% of the global population, many countries face increasing pressures on water resources. The World Bank supports client countries in promoting sustainable water usage, building climate resilience, and enhancing integrated water management.
Even today, 2.5 billion people lack access to improved sanitation, of which 1 billion people practice open defecation. Poor sanitation, including inadequate wastewater collection and treatment, impacts health, education, the environment, and industries. The lack of access to safe water and sanitation results in significant economic losses in many countries. This is further exacerbated by climate change, water pollution, and water scarcity in a fast-changing world.
With a portfolio of water investments of US$41.4 billion (US$29.4 billion of water-sector projects and US$12 billion of multi-sector projects related to water), the World Bank is uniquely positioned to achieve the vision of a water secure world for all, developing and sharing global knowledge while amplifying the impact of lending through technical assistance on the ground. Within its broad mandate, the Water Global Practice (Water GP) is housed within the Sustainable Development Practice Group, which brings together the cross-cutting sectors of Water with Agriculture, Environment, Social Inclusion, and Urban and Disaster Risk Management.
The Water GP global unit hosts several Global Solution Groups (GSGs). The GSGs play a critical role in deepening the use of knowledge in operations. The GSGs play an important role in maintaining the globality of Water Global Practice. Each Global Solutions Group is led by a Global Lead. There are 5 GSGs: Climate Resilient Irrigation (CRI), Water Supply and Sanitation (WSS); Water Resources Management (WRM), Water and Finance; and Water Economics and Climate Change (WE&CC). The GSGs organize direct support to task teams in developing and ensuring the quality of analytical and lending activities throughout the project cycle.
