水和环境卫生
说明
过去几十年里,对水资源不断增长的需求和对水资源的滥用增加了世界许多地区的污染风险并造成严重的水资源压力。地方水危机发生的频率和强度持续上升,对公众健康、环境可持续性、粮食和能源安全以及经济发展产生了严重影响。人口结构的不断变化和不可持续的经济做法正在影响我们可支配的水的数量和质量,使水成为越来越稀缺昂贵的资源,特别是对穷人、边缘化人群和弱势群体而言。
早在1977年,在阿根廷马德普拉塔会议上就提到了水的重要性。该会议制定了“社区饮水供应”行动计划,宣布所有人民都有权获得数量和质量与其基本需要相应的饮用水。在1981年至1990年的国际饮水供应和卫生十年、1992年在里约热内卢举行的联合国环境与发展会议(《21世纪议程》第18章)以及在都柏林举行的水与环境问题国际会议上,进一步强调了水的重要性。1993年,联合国大会将3月22日定为世界水日。2013年,将11月19日定为世界厕所日。
2000年,《千年发展宣言》呼吁世界到2015年将无法获得安全饮用水的人口比例和无法获得基本卫生设施的人口比例减半。大会宣布2003年为国际淡水年,随后将2005年至2015年定为“生命之水”十年。
为了协调联合国各实体和处理水和环境卫生问题的国际组织的努力,联合国行政首长协调会(首协会)于2003年设立联合国水机制,这是一个负责所有淡水和环境卫生相关问题的联合国机构间协调机制。
2008年宣布为国际环境卫生年。2010年7月28日,联合国大会第64/292号决议明确承认获得饮水和环境卫生设施的人权。
2015年9月,联合国首脑会议通过《2030年可持续发展议程》,其中包括关于水和环境卫生的可持续发展目标6。2016年12月,联合国大会一致通过“水促进可持续发展国际行动十年(2018-2028)”的决议,以支持实现可持续发展目标6和其他与水有关的目标。水也是《仙台减少灾害风险框架》和2015年《巴黎协定》等里程碑式协议的核心。
因此,确保人人享有饮用水和环境卫生并对其进行可持续管理,长期以来一直是联合国的一个议题,现在的优先重点是通过国家领导和全球伙伴关系,将《2030年议程》中与水有关的可持续发展目标的新愿景变成现实。水和环境卫生是可持续发展及其提供的一系列服务的核心,是减贫、经济增长和环境可持续性的基础。现在,世界需要改变管理水资源的方式,改变为数十亿人提供水和环境卫生服务的方式。

About the Water Action Decade 2018-2028
The United Nations has long been addressing the global crisis caused by unsafe water and sanitation and growing demands on the world’s water resources to meet human, economic and environmental needs.
In December 2017, UN Member States adopted United Nations General Assembly resolution 71/222 on an International Decade for Action on ‘Water for Sustainable Development’ 2018-2028.
In response to the ambitious 2030 Agenda, the Water Action Decade will accelerate efforts towards meeting water-related challenges, including limited access to safe water and sanitation, increasing pressure on water resources and ecosystems, and an exacerbated risk of droughts and floods.
Water and sanitation are preconditions to life and we must put a greater focus on these human rights. During the decade, the international community sets out to:
- Advance sustainable development
- Energize existing programmes and projects
- Inspire action to achieve the 2030 Agenda

Action Networks for the SDGs are action-oriented networks and communities that are maintained by UN system entities or actors that focus on accelerating progress in certain sustainable development thematic areas, typically contributing to multiple interlinked SDGs.
Action networks are useful in mobilizing resources, generating momentum and creating awareness, spurring tangible results in support of the objectives of the network, scaling up existing initiatives or catalyzing new SMART commitments and actions.

Even before COVID-19 struck, progress on Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6 was alarmingly off track. According to the latest UN report, the current rate of progress on achieving water and sanitation for all will have to quadruple to meet the 2030 deadline.
On Friday, 9 July 2021, a virtual SDG 6 Special Event will be hosted during the High-level Political Forum on Sustainable Development 2021. In line with the theme of the 2021 high-level political forum on sustainable development, the Special Event will focus on how the SDG 6 Global Acceleration Framework can support a sustainable and resilient recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic that promotes the economic, social and environmental dimensions of sustainable development, and builds an inclusive and effective path for the achievement of the 2030 Agenda in the context of the decade of action and delivery for sustainable development.
The SDG 6 Global Acceleration Framework introduces this multi-stakeholder, high-level, annual stock-taking event to enable stakeholders to keep up momentum on SDG 6 as well as share lessons and best practices. The SDG 6 Special Event will review the progress to date and showcase some of the projects that have been developed around the Framework. As a new contribution to the SDG 6 Global Acceleration Framework, progress on the SDG 6 Capacity Development Initiative will be introduced by the co-coordinators UN DESA and UNESCO.
