Action-oriented document on mainstreaming water supply, sanitation, transboundary water management and cooperation into nationally determined contributions and national adaptation plans

The Water Convention and its Protocol on Water and Health developed an Action-oriented document on mainstreaming water supply, sanitation and transboundary water management and cooperation into NDCs and NAPs with financial support from Luxembourg, the Netherlands and UN Development Account. This document serves as a guidance for countries for integrating freshwater actions prominently into their NDCs and NAPs which can facilitate funding for climate-resilient integrated water resources management and WASH on the national and transboundary levels from funding sources focused on supporting NDCs and NAPs implementation. The analysis was made at a global level but specific attention was paid to the countries of the pan-European region for what concerns WASH. The document showcases best practices in mainstreaming transboundary water management and cooperation and WASH into development and implementation of NDCs and NAPs, including examples on how transboundary basin organizations can support development and implementation of NDCs and NAPs. The document is available in English, French, Russian and Spanish.
