The Integrated Monitoring Initiative for Sustainable Development Goal 6 (IMI-SDG6) is a partnership between eight UN agencies and is coordinated by UN-Water. It was and was established at the beginning of the 2030 Agenda period, to accelerate the achievement of SDG 6: Ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all.
FAO is one of the initiative’s partners and the custodian agency responsible for monitoring SDG target 6.4 that aims at “substantially increase water-use efficiency across all sectors and ensure sustainable withdrawals and supply of freshwater to address water scarcity and substantially reduce the number of people suffering from water scarcity by 2030”.
IMI-SDG6 supports countries to collect, analyze and report SDG 6 data, and assists policy and decision-makers to use this data for better policy-decisions and investments.
To this ends, the initiative creates guides, organizes trainings, develops methodology for contextualized and disaggregated data and information.
