We are organizing a webinar on an “Introduction to Water Resilience as an Economic Concept” to go along with launching the updated report "Enabling Resilient Economies: Catalyzing Prosperity and Structural Transformation Through Water Resilience." She is the first person to ever hold this incredibly important position, interleaving the #climatechange and water communities around common themes and missions. I am so proud to work with Ingrid. She is a colleague who became a friend, who became a colleague as well again. I will always carry her water.

Water is the lifeblood of society, the economy and the natural environment. But climate change means that the availability of water for drinking, ecosystems, agriculture, industry and energy can no longer be assumed. With increasing competition for limited water resources, there will be difficult tradeoffs to make.John has been working at the intersection of water with climate adaptation and resilience since 2007. His work explores how we define, develop, and accelerate the uptake of our emerging set of best practices for climate resilience. In AGWA, we have learned that water resilience provides an essential, informative compass for most adaptation and resilience strategies, policies, and actions, with some critical climate mitigation co-benefits. Water is widely recognized as both a major component of many climate-related disasters — the “teeth” of climate change. Building water resilience is an approach to water management, planning, and policy that can integrate many sectors, reduce sectoral, political, and institutional conflict, and clarify sequencing, priorities, and contingencies. We will be sharing Ingrid for the next six months with #UAE, while her policy work in AGWA will be shadowed by the capable and entrepreneurial Josh Weinberg. More about him soon!

Come to our #climateweeknyc #unga session on aligning #waterstewardship with our #carbon ambitions. Is water the hidden catalyst for the low-carbon revolution? AGWA is an international NGO working across technical and policy programs to mainstream resilient water resources management, focusing on the connections between water resources and climate adaptation and mitigation. AGWA works with and through its member network to develop and crowdsource solutions across disciplines, institutions, and sectors.But less often considered, is the critical role of water in helping countries mitigate and adapt to climate change.

Please register -- and then come to hear the #corporate voices showing how to increase our ambition, scope, and efficacy for net zero! The Alliance for Water Stewardship (AWS) and Alliance for Global Water Adaptation (AGWA) are hosting an in-person live event on this important topic: From unpredictable rainfall patterns to extreme floods and droughts, water is widely recognized at the forefront of many climate disasters — the “teeth” of climate change. Water is needed in efforts to reduce carbon emissions, such as generating renewable energy and sequestering carbon. Drivers such as climate change and many forms of recent social, political, and economic change reveal that overly narrow interventions can ignore interactions with other social-ecological systems, depend on inappropriately precise and fixed data, or promote largely incremental adjustments that may not encompass the true scale of impacts and challenges. Promoting robustness to extreme flooding and extreme droughts may simply be unfeasible, while the deferral for additional clarity and certainty about the future through flexibility may not always match the needs of decision makers for action. Deep resilience has been used to describe a new set of approaches that explicitly link problems as divergent as flood and drought prevention for the same location and sharing critical resources between energy, agriculture, and cities. By focusing on the need for resilient interactions between projects, proposed solutions may become more cohesive and coherent to promote cross-sectoral and systemic resilience. When decision makers assume that deep uncertainty is a defining quality of these problems, proposed solutions can make uncertainty-tolerant use of ecosystems and nature-based solutions (NbS), governance systems, and freshwater resources.Policy, 19 May 2021 // New Initiatives Launched to Bring Water to the Heart of Climate Action: Takeaways from the Petersberg Climate Dialogue Satellite Event on Water Water needs a clear, shining voice in the global #climatepolicy space. As of today, that voice is Ingrid Timboe, seconded from Alliance for Global Water Adaptation (AGWA) as the Water Advisor for the #COP28 Presidency for #cop28UAE. It is also useful for line ministries, civil society, investment banks, aid agencies and other groups with a stake in evaluating the credibility and efficacy of national climate plans. Who is involved? Current work includes developing a new generation of resilience indicators, leading the development and implementation of a national climate planning tool, working with businesses to incorporate resilience within operations, heading a program to engage macroeconomic planners and central bankers to blend resilience with traditional economic evaluation approaches, and contributing to large-scale technical climate risk assessments. Simply put, water resilience means the ability of water-related policies, plans and investments to cope with climate-related impacts.
