Water security refers to the physical and economic access to safe and sufficient water for human consumption, hygiene, livelihood, and ecosystem health. The concept encompasses not only the availability of water but also its quality, with the aim of maximizing benefits while minimizing risks such as floods, droughts, and water pollution. The World Health Organization defines water security as the physical and economic access to safe and sufficient water for human consumption, hygiene, livelihood, and ecosystem health. Organizations such as the Water.org and the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) are working to address water security challenges through initiatives like the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
