Session Description
As we confront pressing water management challenges, we must gauge our current consumption patterns to anticipate and prepare for the scenarios awaiting us in 2035. Our proposed session will identify opportunities to create self-sustaining aquifers by that date while exploring the results of a comprehensive analysis of various existing and future water usage and users. Central to our discussion will be the projections for 2035, considering factors such as population growth, urbanization trends, climate change impacts, and innovation. Through this foresight, we’ll elucidate the risks posed to water resources, highlighting vulnerabilities various stakeholders face. By presenting case studies from regions exhibiting distinct climatic conditions and consumption patterns, we intend to illuminate the multifaceted nature of water utilization across industries, households, and agriculture. The interdisciplinary nature of the sessions is designed to foster dialogue on sustainable and innovative methodologies and collaborative frameworks essential for addressing imminent challenges. Our session endeavours to equip participants with actionable insights and pragmatic solutions. By fostering knowledge exchange and partnerships, we aim to catalyse collective action towards securing water resources essential for future generations.
