On September 29th, students and staff at UNESCO-IHE in Delft celebrate Blue Day, to mark the adoption of the new Sustainable Development Goals, particularly Goal 6: Ensure access to water and sanitation for all.
UNESCO-IHE and the Sustainable Development Goals
On 27 September 2015, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were adopted by world leaders at the Sustainable Development Summit in New York. UNESCO-IHE has undertaken action to support the inclusion and achievement of water-related SDGs, in particular Goal 6 on ensuring access to water and sanitation for all.
Much of the Institute’s work contributes to Goal 6 or related environmental goals, notably by educating water professionals, undertaking research and developing innovative solutions to sanitation, environment and food security challenges.
