climate adaptation with an integrated and inclusive approach,
focusing on water management and spatial planning at COP29,
Azernews reports.
" The Netherlands aims to build upon existing initiatives, such
as the Water Action Agenda commitments from the 2023 UN Water
Conference, highlighted during COP28. These efforts will culminate
in a report showcasing outcomes from the Global Commission on the
Water Economy in autumn 2024."
Speaking at ADA University, van Ginneken emphasized the critical
role of academic institutions, think tanks, and universities in
fostering sustainable water and climate practices.
"To achieve water and climate sustainability, we must enhance
the development and capacity-building efforts within these
institutions," she stated.
"Today's gathering at ADA University not only facilitates the
exchange of water-related insights but also underscores the pivotal
role of academia in shaping our priorities and assessing our
progress," she added.
