      Der Weltwasserrat fordert eine neue Doktrin für eine innovative Wasserordnung

      KAIRO, 26. Oktober 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Zur Eröffnung der 9. Kairoer Wasserwoche richtete der Präsident des Weltwasserrats, Loïc Fauchon, einen Aufruf an die Weltgemeinschaft: Es ist Zeit für "eine neue Doktrin für die Wassernutzung", die "eine innovative Wasserordnung" hervorbringen wird.

      „Die Welt steckt in Schwierigkeiten", warnte Herr Fauchon, da Konflikte und Instabilität zur Normalität werden. Doch während die Armut zurückgeht und die Technologie rasant voranschreitet, bleibt die Bewirtschaftung der natürlichen Ressourcen des Planeten ein „dunkler Fleck". Klimawandel, Dürre, Überschwemmungen, das rasante Wachstum von Megastädten und veränderte Ernährungsgewohnheiten bedeuten, dass die alten Strategien nicht mehr funktionieren.

      „Wir haben viel zu lange dem Angebot Priorität eingeräumt; es ist an der Zeit, die Nachfrage proaktiv zu steuern." Die neue Doktrin bedeutet, das von uns mobilisierte Wasser und die von uns kontrollierte Nachfrage gemeinsam zu steuern, damit auch das Wasser, das die Natur benötigt, erhalten bleibt. Die Botschaft lässt sich in drei Worten zusammenfassen: Bewahren, Aufbewahren, Servieren.

      Der Weltwasserrat verweist auf Lösungen, die bereits in greifbarer Nähe liegen: umsichtige Nutzung von tiefem Grundwasser, Transfers zwischen Regionen, kostengünstige Entsalzung und vor allem die Wiederverwendung von Abwasser, die „Wasserrevolution dieses Jahrhunderts", zunächst für Landwirtschaft und Industrie, bald für alle häuslichen Zwecke. Herr Fauchon forderte außerdem eine neue Generation intelligenterer Stauseen, die gut über die Gebiete verteilt sind und die Biodiversität respektieren, während sie gleichzeitig Wasser und Energie sichern. Dies sind praktische Instrumente, die weltweit eingesetzt werden können, von Megastädten bis hin zu ländlichen Becken. Das Gastgeberland Ägypten macht es bereits vor, von einer Anlage, die Abwasser aufbereitet, Strom erzeugt und Wasser wiederverwendet, bis hin zu einem geplanten Pumpspeicherkraftwerk.

      Die Versorgung allein wird nicht ausreichen. Herr Fauchon forderte die Weltgemeinschaft auf, Verluste durch digitales Leckagemanagement zu reduzieren, wassersparende Technologien überall einzusetzen und die Wertschätzung von Wasser in den Gesellschaften zu verändern. Er forderte ein Umdenken hinsichtlich des Wasserfußabdrucks von Ackerbau, Viehzucht, Industrie und Tourismus sowie eine globale Kampagne gegen Lebensmittelverluste und -verschwendung: 40 Prozent der produzierten Lebensmittel, 2,5 Milliarden Tonnen pro Jahr, werden nie verzehrt. Dieses Anliegen, sagte er, verdiene einen Platz in den Zielen für nachhaltige Entwicklung.

      Zwei Verpflichtungen bestimmen die Arbeit des Weltwasserrats: stärkere internationale Zusammenarbeit zum Austausch bewährter Verfahren über Kontinente hinweg und die Einbeziehung aller jungen Menschen. „Ohne die Jugend der Welt lässt sich keine große Vision konzipieren."

      Herr Fauchon bekräftigte das Engagement des Weltwasserrats für die Hydrodiplomatie: „Wir alle wollen Frieden entlang der Wasserwege und lehnen Wasserkriege ab." Gemeinsam mit seinen saudischen Partnern und der breiteren Wasserwirtschaftsgemeinschaft arbeitet der Rat daran, dass das 11. Weltwasserforum im März 2027 in Riad zu einem Meilenstein in der Geschichte des Wassers wird.
