Riyadh, September 04, 2023, The Crown Prince and Prime Minister of Saudi Arabia, His Royal Highness Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, declared that Riyadh will serve as the organization's base of operations. In order to secure global water responsibly, the organization attempts to integrate and improve the efforts made by governments and other groups. It intends to share knowledge, enhance technology, encourage innovation, and exchange expertise. Additionally, it would encourage the creation and funding of high-priority projects, guaranteeing the sustainability of water resources and ensuring everyone has access to them. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia demonstrates its commitment to tackling issues with the world's water supply by launching the organization. The program complements Saudi Arabia's commitment to environmental sustainability. The Kingdom has made considerable advancements in the production, delivery, and distribution of water over the years, by utilizing locally created creative solutions. These accomplishments have received recognition on a global scale. Saudi Arabia also has a significant impact on keeping the subject of global water security at the top of the international agenda. The Kingdom's development money, which has more than $6 billion earmarked for diverse water and sanitation projects across four continents, serves as more proof of this.
The group wants to work with nations, who are emphasizing water-related initiatives on their national agendas, and those, that are suffering from water-related issues. Countries with considerable experience and contributions to water solutions will also be a part of this collaboration. With estimates that the world's water demand will double by 2050 and an estimated 9.8 billion people on the planet, such cooperation is even more important.
The Kingdom, together with all of the organization's member nations, aims to help achieve the sustainable development goals connected to water security by bringing the international community together to guarantee humankind's access to sustainable global water supplies.
