Water, Climate Justice Depend on Global Cooperation
Recognized for his contributions to sustainable water resource management, Madani received the prestigious prize from the Stockholm International Water Institute, an honor often referred to as the "Nobel Prize of Water."
During a conversation with a news agency, Madani elaborated on his perspective regarding climate justice, particularly in relation to the global water crisis.
He explained that his understanding of water issues was deeply influenced by his upbringing in an area where limited water availability is an ongoing concern. "A person growing up in Iran or in the Middle East knows very well that water scarcity is a major issue. Coming from a culture that respects water, and from a region where water is very valuable, got me into this," he explained.
Emphasizing the connection between water-related challenges and climate change, Madani pointed out that water is fundamental to achieving fairness in climate responses. "At the end of the day, what we see is that certain communities around the world have to bear the cost more than others. They are impacted much more and lack the capacity to cope with the consequences."
