Our 20<sup>th<\/sup> anniversary comes at a turning point in the global development agenda. Since its inception in 1996, GWP has advocated for water resources to be a high priority of the development agenda \u2013 because water is connected to virtually every area of human life: health, economic growth, energy, food, transport, education, ecosystems, manufacturing, even peace.<\/p>\n<p>Now water resources has its place within the <em>2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development <\/em>with a Sustainable Development Goal (SDG #6). GWP will build on its 20 years of impact and experience by looking ahead to the next 20, working for the implementation of all the water-related SDGs \u2013 a message that is also communicated in the video. We have articulated that role in a strategic positioning paper, <a
