MISSION STATEMENT

               The International Hydrological Program (IHP), UNESCO's intergovernmental scientific co-operative programme    in water resources, is a vehicle through which Member States can upgrade their knowledge of the water cycle and thereby increase their capacity to better manage and develop their water resources.

               It also aims at the improvement of the scientific and technological basis for the development of methods for      the rational management of water resources, including the protection of the environment.

ABOUT THE WATER PORTAL

                The UNESCO Water Portal is intended to enhance access to information related to freshwater available on the  World Wide Web.

                The site provides links to the current UNESCO and UNESCO-led programs on freshwater and will serve as an interactive point for sharing, browsing and searching websites of water-related organizations, government bodies and NGOs, including a range of categories such as water links, water events, learning modules and other on-line resources.

                Surfers can also add or modify links to help maintain an accurate online resource. All water managers are invited to participate by providing information on activities, useful links, news and content which they wish to share with others and generally make more widely available.
