Climate change has led to an increase in the number and intensity of climate-related disasters and manifests itself primarily through changes inmate water cycle. One of the major impacts of this is on water and hence climate change related disasters.

As climate changes, droughts, floods, melting glaciers, sea-level rise and storms intensify or alter, often with severe consequences on river and coastal ecosystems. It’s impact have direct consequences on water security and conflict. In order to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals climate change adaptation will have to build climate resilience.

Rivers are essential sources of water and nutrients for millions of people worldwide, but global warming is taking its toll on these fragile water systems.

Rivers can play a key role in adaptation and mitigation of climate change. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) alerted the global community to the great vulnerability of freshwater resources as a result of climate change. A recent study by the International Food Policy Research Institute found that 4.8 billion people – more than half the world’s population – and approximately half of global grain production will be at risk due to water stress by 2050. Major solutions are strengthening focus on building resilience, adaptation through rivers rejuvenation and Nature-based solutions
