AIP SDG Water investment support programme

The goal of the AIP SDG investment Support Programme is to assist countries in achieving Sustainable Development Goal 6 and contribute to the achievement of water-related SDG targets in health, energy, food and ecosystems while boosting job creation interventions.

The overall objective is to promote integration of SDG water investments into planning, decision-making and implementation of SDGs on energy, food, ecosystems and health while aligning with COVID-19 economic recovery plans.

The programme supports countries to improve the investment climate for implementation of coordinated SDG 6 investments on water-health-energy-food-ecosystems as part of national efforts on SDGs and resilient economic recovery plans.

The programme will foster an integrated water and sanitation-health-energy-food-ecosystem nexus approach and address constraints in policy, governance and institutional capacity bottlenecks.
