Opening Workshop on Water Quality Monitoring
The Opening Workshop is the first of a series of workshops on water quality monitoring taking place throughout 2022-2023. It aims at contributing to WMO’s Water Quality long-term ambition and feeds into various activities from the key partners such as GEMS/Water revision and strategic reorientation and the WWQ-Assessment.
Background
Water quality (WQ) is one of the main challenges that societies will face during the 21st century, threatening human health, limiting food production, reducing ecosystem functions, and hindering economic growth. The WMO-UNEP-UNESCO-WHO-OGC co-organized Workshop Series on Water Quality Monitoring hosted under the banner of the World Water Quality Alliance (WWQA) aims to foster the development and operationalization of innovative solutions for water quality monitoring, improve data harmonization and interoperability, and arrive at a common roadmap for strengthened cooperation on water quality monitoring across the various institutions and data streams.
