Drought and Desertification
Drought, desertification estimated to affect one-third of the world’s population and are predicted to worsen

Sea Level Rise
Millions of people low-lying coastal areas,SIDS at risk over the 21st century

Delta losses
Rising sea levels to result in freshwater losses in river delta systems

Water Stress
700 million people in 43 countries live below the water-stress threshold of 1,700 cubic metres per person. By 2025 that figure will reach 3 billion

Gender Impacts
increased frequency of droughts means that women are walking greater distances to collect water, often ranging from 10-15 km/ day

Ecosystems & Forests
Changes in hydrology to have wide-ranging impacts on ecosystem diversity

Glacial Melt & Mountain Populations
increase flood risk to one-sixth of the world’s population, predominantly in the Indian sub-continent, parts of China, and the Andes in South America

Climate Migration and Displacement
A global temperature increase of 3-4°C could cause 330 million people displaced

Agriculture and Food Systems
Disruption of food production systems may expose an additional 75–125 million people to threat of hunger
![Page 15: Cc operational strategy](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081412/5456231daf795917618b8558/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Transboundary Impacts
An estimated 145 states have international basins within their territory, and 30 countries lie entirely within them

Finance and GDP• UNFCCC-additional costs
for adaptation in the water sector $9 – 11 billion in 2030
• World Bank- $13.7 billion in drier scenarios, and $19.2 billion in wetter scenarios for ‘Water Supply and Flood Management’.

Goal 2: Address critical development challenges
This means contributing to solutions for critical challenges to water security, such as climate change,
urbanisation, food production, resource related conflict
and other challenges.
![Page 21: Cc operational strategy](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081412/5456231daf795917618b8558/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Expected outcomes-2a
Outcome 2a:
