The Global Water, Climate and Development Programme (WACDEP) aims to promote water security and climate change resilience in development planning. Changes in the water cycle from climate change will impact water security through increasing variability, extremes like droughts and floods, and warmer water temperatures. WACDEP works to integrate water security and climate resilience into development policies, budgets, and projects. It also builds institutional and planning capacities and supports development of investment strategies and bankable projects. The program has supported over 30 governments in integrating water security and climate change into their policies and plans across Africa, Asia, Latin America and Eastern Europe.
