Abstract:
This policy note is a call to action for all practitioners working in water management and gender mainstreaming worldwide. With only five years left to achieve Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 5 on gender equality and SDG 6 on water and sanitation, urgent action is needed to scale up efforts and accelerate joint progress.
Drawing on the latest assessment of SDG indicator 6.5.1 on integrated water resources management (IWRM) and country-level insights, this note highlights key challenges in gender mainstreaming within water resources management and identifies powerful enablers of progress towards both goals. These enablers include
fostering political will at the highest levels, developing detailed plans with dedicated budgets, and ensuring effective participation of women and parity in decision-making and technical roles. Additional enablers, such as collaboration and partnerships across institutions on gender equality, robust monitoring, and education initiatives, are shown to be critical for achieving transformative and inclusive water governance.
