THE WATER SCENARIO 2025


Freshwater needs will grow by 20% in mature economies and by 50% in new economies by 2025. As populations grow and cities expand, it is essential to prevent flooding and provide clean and affordable water for consumption. Cities are where water is not always available but where people need it. Cities need to make their water smarter, more efficient, safe and available. Schneider Electric

Water SitUation AssessMent


The Philippines comes out at level two out of 5 so that means there's still quite some way to go. The scores in the 5 key dimensions are two for household water security, 4 for economic water security, doing strongly there, one for urban water security, which means treatment of wastewater and management and reduction of floods and the damages from floods. That is an area of serious concern to increase water security for action, as mentioned, and of course the Philippines is engaged in that. Environment water security score is 2 and the resilience to water disasters is also 2, Wouter Lincklaen Arriens, ADB
