The World Water Assessment Programme (WWAP),
founded in 2000, is the flagship programme of UN-Water. Housed in
UNESCO, WWAP monitors freshwater issues in order to provide
recommendations, develop case studies, enhance assessment capacity at a national
level and inform the decision-making process.
Its primary product, the World Water Development Report (WWDR), is a periodic,
comprehensive review providing an authoritative picture of the state of the
world’s freshwater resources.
