The UAE’s approach to water goes beyond financing dams and water networks.
In a world marked by increasing environmental pressures, few challenges are as urgent as ensuring access to clean, reliable water sources for all. As climate change accelerates, populations grow, and demand intensifies, the issue of water security has evolved from a local concern into a global imperative.
Achieving lasting solutions requires more than regional action – it necessitates a unified approach across all sectors of society, from governments and businesses to individuals.
At Abu Dhabi Fund for Development, we have long recognised that water plays a key role in both survival and progress. Our commitment to sustainable development has driven us to support numerous initiatives that address water access and the management of water resources, especially in the face of growing scarcity.
“From desalination technologies that turn seawater into freshwater to digital tools that help optimise water use in agriculture, technological advancements will play a central role in overcoming water scarcity.”
