The socio-economic values

of water • Water permeates all aspects of life on our

planet

• Water is an essential component of our economies and is required to create sustainable jobs in every sector of the economy

• When dealing with water, policy-makers and decision-makers must consider the potential economic (and thus employment) losses that may result from the mismanagement or lack of investment in water-related sectors through better investments

Regional Challenges of

‘Water Jobs’

Trends of income inequality and poor employment rates

Vulnerabilities associated with natural disasters and climate change

Capacities and gaps in IWRM

Untreated wastewater, lack of sanitation, and pollution

Regional Responses to Challenges

and Needs on ‘Water Jobs’

Addressing the gaps in urban and rural livelihoods through the improvement of water infrastructure, especially through engagement at the community level

Efficiency in water use contributes to economic growth and to the generation of new job opportunities in the region, if supported by a policy framework to motivate investments in transitions to a green economy

Transition beyond sectorial issues, towards IWRM, demonstrating the short, medium, and long-term values and benefits

Asian Water Development Outlook 2013 defines these as

the 5 key dimensions (KD) of water security

is Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM)

Improving water security requires: • integrated investments that cross-sectoral boundaries

• sustainable reforms to improve water governance.

Managing the 5 key dimensions together


KD1: Household Water Security Index

What it measures: Performance in satisfying household water and sanitation needs and improving hygiene for public health

KD 1 = f (water supply (%), sanitation (%), DALY*) * DALY: Age-standardized disability-adjusted life years (for diarrhea)


KD2: Economic Water Security Index

What it measures: Performance in ensuring the productive use of water to sustain economic growth in food production, industry and energy

KD 2 = f (water productivity in agriculture, industry, and energy)


KD3: Urban Water Security Index

What it measures: Performance in creating better urban water services and management to develop vibrant, livable cities and towns

KD 3 = f (urban water supply (%), sanitation (%), flood)


KD4: Environmental Water Security Index

What it measures: Performance in restoring their river basins and ecosystems to health on a national and regional scale

KD 4 = f (pressures/threats, vulnerability/resilience)


KD5: Resilience Index (water-related disasters)

What it measures: Performance in building resilient communities that can adapt to change

KD 5 = f (exposure, vulnerability, capacity)


Composite Water Security Index

What it measures: How far countries (or basins) have progressed towards water security

5: Model 4: Effective 3: Capable 2: Engaged 1: Hazardous

CI = f (KD1, KD2, KD3, KD4, KD5) expressed in 5 stages:


Water- and Sanitation Related SDGs require

integration and understanding of the linkages

between the SDG targets

TD 4 - Case Study: Smart Water Grid in Korea

• Smart Water Grid Project since 2012

• A 4 year research project to promote SWG & achieve water

security through efficient distribution of water resources

• Alternative sources, river, groundwater, rainwater, sewage &

seawater

• IWRM via smart meters, sensors, AMI & operation networks
