How can leaders take the water action agenda forward as an enabler to address the nexus of critical issues including climate, energy, and food systems? In this session, hosted by the World Economic Forum, high-level public and private stakeholders come together virtually to discuss the main outcomes of the UN Water Conference and the actions required to ensure a water-positive future for people and planet.
