The World Water Actions Inventory was designed for two purposes:
Firstly, to list and display all actions that are synthesized in the final report being prepared by the Water Action Unit and that was submitted to discussion at the 3rd World Water Forum (Kyoto, March 2003).
Secondly, to solicit reactions on the information provided and encourage public contributions, in order to report on water actions being implemented in some parts of the world that are not yet inventoried by the Water Action Unit.
