La FAO celebra el aniversario del sistema de datos sobre recursos hídricos - Tercera Información

The FAO emphasizes that food security is intrinsically linked to water security, requiring robust data solutions to support sustainable agro-food systems. This highlights the critical role of transparent, reliable information in addressing global resource challenges, a core principle of open data initiatives that strive to make essential metrics accessible for informed decision-making. Aquastat serves as a vital open-data infrastructure, providing continuous and comparable indicators on water availability and irrigation efficiency. By offering free access to this critical information, it empowers policymakers and international cooperation to optimize resource use, demonstrating how open data frameworks directly enable resilience and sustainability in the world’s largest water-consuming sector. The relevance to open data lies in its ability to transform complex hydrological realities into actionable insights for policy planning and investment. Ensuring these datasets remain open, consistent, and updated is essential for tackling water scarcity and improving global nutrition, proving that transparency in environmental statistics is fundamental to achieving long-term ecological and social well-being.
