MDG 1: the targets
Goal 1: Eradicate extreme poverty and hunger
Target 1: halve between 1990 and 2015 the proportion of people whose income is less than 1 $ per day
Target 2: halve between 1990 and 2015 the proportion of people who suffer from hunger
Note: Same people suffering both – same target group for most MDG’s!

MDG 7: the targets
Goal 7: Ensure environmental sustainability
Target 9: integrate the principles of sustainable development inot country policies and programs and reverse the loss of environmental resources
Target 10: halve by 2015 the proportion of people without sustainable access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation(the ”water target”)
Target 11: have achieved by 2020 a significant improvement in the lives of at least 100 million slum dwellers

The 8 Millennium Development Goals:What will they achieve by 2015?
• 500 mill people out of extreme poverty
• 300 mill people no longer suffering from hunger
• Dramatic progress on child health: 30 mill children saved
• 2 mill mothers saved
• 350 mill people fewer without safe drinking water
• 650 mill people fewer without benefits of sanitation
• Etc. etc.

The “water” target

The Millennium Development Goals:The “water target” (MDG 7, target 10)
“Halving proportion of people without access to safe drinking water supply and sanitation by 2015”:
=> serving 230,000 people/day with water!!=> serving 430,000 people/day with sanitation
![Page 9: Prof. Torkil Jønch-Clausen Director, DHI Water & Environment Chair, Danish water Forum “Water reform and access to water for the rural poor” September](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022032204/56649e365503460f94b26121/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Water as a Human Right
UN Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural RightsNovember 2002
“The human right to drinking water is fundamental for lifeand health. Sufficient and safe drinking water is a
precondition for the realization of all human rights”

Pressure on water: Global trends
![Page 16: Prof. Torkil Jønch-Clausen Director, DHI Water & Environment Chair, Danish water Forum “Water reform and access to water for the rural poor” September](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022032204/56649e365503460f94b26121/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Water and the poverty goal
• Water as a production factor for the poor
• Water infrastructure as development catalyst
• Reduced vulnerability to floods and droughts
• Reduced ecosystem degradation - better livelihoods
• Reduced water related diseases - deaths!
![Page 17: Prof. Torkil Jønch-Clausen Director, DHI Water & Environment Chair, Danish water Forum “Water reform and access to water for the rural poor” September](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022032204/56649e365503460f94b26121/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Water and the hunger goal
• Grain production from irrigation
• Water for subsistence agriculture, gardens, livestock and tree crops
• Water for fisheries and other foods
• Reduced urban hunger due to cheaper food prices
• Better nutritional status for healthy people
![Page 18: Prof. Torkil Jønch-Clausen Director, DHI Water & Environment Chair, Danish water Forum “Water reform and access to water for the rural poor” September](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022032204/56649e365503460f94b26121/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Water and the hunger goal (IWMI/SEI 2005)
50% increase in water use for food production by 2015- from 4500 cukm/yr to 6700 cukm/yr!

Water and the hunger goal- implications of these estimates
• Strong focus on rainfed agriculture
• Strong focus on smallholders
• Increasing challenge in trade-off between water for food production and water for ecosystems (environmental flows)
• Need for IWRM approaches!

The WSSD (Johannesburg) target
“Develop integrated water resources management and water efficiency plans by 2005, with support to developing countries”
![Page 22: Prof. Torkil Jønch-Clausen Director, DHI Water & Environment Chair, Danish water Forum “Water reform and access to water for the rural poor” September](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022032204/56649e365503460f94b26121/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
IWRM – why and what?

Addressing the delicate balance!

Why such IWRM plans at WSSD?
Two good reasons:
• Instrument to mainstream water in national economy and development in all sectors
• Instrument to help achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDG´s) by 2015: on poverty, hunger, health and environment

The outcome:
National frameworks for water development, management and service provision ….
Framework for water governance
Framework for water infrastructure development
Framework for water and sanitation service delivery
Framework for water efficiency improvements
Essential frameworks for addressing water and poverty!

The further Danish commitment…
A joint Danida-UN/Water high level conference in
Copenhagen in January 2007:
– Moving from national roadmaps and plans to implementation of IWRM
– International agreement on a ”roadmap for IWRM implementation” towards 2015
-- and continued effort to support countries in IWRM implementation as a contribution to MDG achievement
