THE WATER GLOBAL PRACTICE


Water resources are under unprecedented and increasing pressures, driven by greater climate variability, population and economic growth, land-use changes, and declining quantities and qualities of both ground and surface waters.

With cross-cutting impacts on agriculture, education, energy, health, gender equity, and livelihood, water is an essential resource for all life on the planet and is at the center of economic and social development.

Climate change expresses itself through water and sound water management lies at the heart of the resilience agenda. Successful water management requires accurate knowledge of the resource available and an assessment of competing demands for its usage. Making best use of available supplies requires complex and sensitive economic, environmental and socio-political trade-offs. Planning for a more uncertain and more constrained water environment in the future only makes the situation more complex.

The world will not be able to meet the great development challenges of the 21st century - human development, livable cities, climate change, food security, energy security, and universal access to services - unless we ensure a water-secure world for all.


The WBG is in a unique position to help governments take such an integrated and strategic approach to solve water supply, sanitation, water resource, hydropower, and irrigation problems through partnership, finance, and knowledge.

The Water Global Practice is poised to deliver on a Water Secure World through an approach that focuses on Sustaining Water Resources, Delivering Services and Building Resilience.

The WTR GP also has strong external partnerships and houses the Global Water Security and Sanitation Program (GWSP), the 2030 Water Resources Group (2030WRG) and several regional transboundary programs.

The GP has a close-knit leadership structure, with a Global Director, 11 Practice Managers, 2 Global Program Managers, and Global Leads for

(1) WSS Service Delivery,

(2) Water in Agriculture,

(3) Water Resources Management,

(4) Economics and Climate, and

(5) Finance.

The LT also works closely with other GPs and the SD Regional Directors.

Increasingly, while staff may specialize in one sub-sector, they are encouraged and supported to address the full water agenda in terms of analytical, policy, and operational work.

The GP, through its fully integrated GWSP Trust Fund, places highest priority on global knowledge into local implementation, as well as in deploying and providing opportunities for staff to work in operational regions and global products.


THE WATER GLOBAL PRACTICE FRONT OFFICE
Led by the Global Director, the Front Office (FO) drives the policy direction of the Water GP.

Nine staff support the Global Director in the FO to deliver on both external and internal priorities:

the five Global Leads, a Lead Water Resources Management Specialist, a Senior Water Economist, a Program Analyst, and a Senior Executive Assistant.

Externally, the FO leads the GP's strategic engagement with high-level partners to set the global water agenda.

Internally, the FO is focused on improving the quality of operations, advocating for the water agenda and managing corporate knowledge flows and reporting.

On operations, the FO oversees portfolio monitoring and ensures close coordination between the Global Unit, Global Leads, GWSP, 2030 WRG and the regional Water Practice Managers and task teams to bring global knowledge into country operations and analytical work.

Technical peer review is a key component of operational delivery and the FO coordinates with the Global Leads on this quality assurance function.

At the corporate level, the FO liaises with the Sustainable Development Vice Presidential Unit, responds to requests from the Managing Directors, manages corporate priorities and reporting, and works with the Global Unit to adhere to Bank corporate mandates (on gender, inclusion, climate change, dam safety, maximizing finance for development and fragility, conflict and violence).


The Global Lead for Water Supply and Sanitation (WSS) leads the Water Global Practice's efforts to support Bank teams and client countries to achieve Sustainable Development Goal 6, in particular SDG 6.1 and 6.2.

The individual will work closely with the other Global Leads for Water Resources Management, Water in Agriculture, Water and Finance, and Water, the Economy and Climate Change.

This will include close coordination in areas such as Water Security, Water Go
