India is going through acute Water Shortage and at the same time the Nation is also facing the Challenges of Providing enough Safe Drinking Water to each of its Citizens. The Conservation of Water as a Precious Natural Resource is One of the Topest Priorities for IISD's Sustainability Leadership Agenda.

Before We Impress Others to Conserve, It is Important that We must look at Ourselves i.e.;

   • What is Our Own Water Footprint?
   • Is Our Own Water Consumption Pattern Sustainable?
   • Can We Further Optimize Our Water Consumption by Adopting Efficient Water Use Methods and Best Global Practices?
   (Which will make the way for others to have access to this precious life-saving natural resource)
