The conference global theme, “Water Challenges in XXI Century: Role of Economics, Statistics and Finance”, underpins major challenges of sustainable water management, water security, growing water scarcity, decreasing water quality, and increasing frequency of extreme events. These challenges require sustainable water management where water, ecosystems and livelihoods are secured.

 Developing a better understanding of the economic value of water security is a priority.
