Water is a vital resource, but its sustainable management is one of the most urgent challenges of our time. ISH 2025, the international fair dedicated to the HVAC and water sectors, will take on this crucial theme with the Value of Water Conference on March 17th and 18th in Frankfurt.
Organized in collaboration with Handelsblatt, this independent conference will bring together world-renowned experts to discuss innovative strategies and concrete solutions to ensure equitable and sustainable access to water. The conference is based on the framework provided by the UN Sustainable Development Goal No. 6, which is aimed at guaranteeing safe and potable water and adequate sanitation and hygiene services to everyone.
The global water challenge and Goal No. 6 of the 2030 agenda
Goal No. 6 in Agenda 2030 highlights how access to clean water is essential to public health, food security, and environmental sustainability. Despite progress being made, over 2 million people across the world still do not have access to safe water services.
