Water is a strategic resource and an essential element in national and regional security. Water management can also bridge borders and be a powerful tool of co-operation, enhancing security, prosperity and environmental protection. Therefore, transboundary water co-operation and water diplomacy are essential tools for the OSCE, which has a long track record in water management projects, such as transboundary water co-operation, water diplomacy and good water governance.
Including youth voices in decision-making processes is not just the right thing to do, it’s essential. Sustainability of our collective efforts to promote security and stability for future generations requires dialogue and solidarity with younger generations.
