Rome Declaration on Water Scarcity in Agriculture
The Rome Declaration on Water Scarcity in Agriculture, adopted on October 17, 2024, by FAO member countries, focuses on addressing water scarcity, exacerbated by climate change. The declaration promotes political support for sustainable water use, with commitments to policies, legal frameworks, and financial access. Family farming, vital for global food security, is central to these efforts, and the IFAD aims to mobilize $10 billion for agricultural productivity. The Global Framework on Water Scarcity in Agriculture (WASAG), launched in 2016, continues to provide collaborative solutions to these challenges.
