World Water Council position paper on water in post-2015 Development Agenda
The World Water Council considers the formulation of the Sustainable DevelopmentGoals (SDGs) to be an endeavor of the highest importance to ensure a prosperous and equitable future for humankind. As part of this, the Council encourages the UN to move forward towards the new set of Sustainable Development Goals, and the development of a SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-Bound) Sustainable Development Goal on Water. In this effort, the World Water Council is compelled to reiterate its message that no development can occur without the necessary water security to nurture sustainable development.
