Groundwater: Making the invisible visible - The United Nations World Water Development Report 2022

The WWDR 2022 aims at calling world-wide attention for groundwater, a natural resource of enormous importance, but often poorly understood, undervalued or even overlooked. Attention is needed to catalyze optimal use of the enormous opportunities offered by groundwater to human societies for gaining social, economic and environmental benefits, including the potential contributions of groundwater to climate change adaptation and to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
