Next week, countries will gather for the first UN Water Conference in almost 50 years. It's time to put water at the top of the political agenda.

We need #WaterAction: bold plans to restore the world's rivers and aquifers, and secure water as a fundamental human right.

[🇪🇺EU at UN-NY @EUatUN]

Nearly midway through the #2030Agenda cycle, very little time remains to achieve our agreed targets for clean, healthy, productive & resilient oceans & seas.

The forthcoming UN #OceanConference Declaration must include a strong call for action.
