Henk Ovink, Special Envoy for International Water Affairs for the Kingdom of the Netherlands, discusses the need for a more holistic, circular approach to water and climate change, including the adoption of nature-based solutions for climate adaptation and resilience.
Speaking on water in relation to COVID-19, Henk added:
“Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) are not only the first line of defence, they are also the best step for sustainable recovery. Water scarcity is a global problem that needs collective action. Now is the time!”
