This document summarizes ISO 14046:2014, which provides principles, requirements, and guidelines for assessing water footprints. It outlines the standard's scope, normative references, terms and definitions, principles, methodological framework, reporting requirements, and critical review process. The methodological framework follows a life cycle assessment approach and includes defining goals and scope, conducting a water footprint inventory analysis, performing a water footprint impact assessment, and interpreting results. Water footprint reporting must include the study goal, scope, inventory analysis, impact assessment, and interpretation. The standard can be applied to organizations and products to identify water use and impacts throughout their life cycles and supply chains.
