About this ebook
The Water Partnership Program (WPP0 Annual Report, Water Security for All: The Next Wave of Tools outlines Phase II of the program and summarizes its achievements and impact from January 2013 through June 2014. The report showcases how the WPP enables the Bank’s Water Global Practice to become a knowledge incubator and achieve results across regions in areas calling for immediate action, such as climate change, energy and food security, and urban water management. It also demonstrates how programmatic approaches implemented through global initiatives can help countries to anticipate the future and better prepare for it.
