It is the only intergovernmental programme of the UN system devoted to water research, water resources management, and water-related education and capacity-building.<\/p>\n<p>These activities are implemented through the large network of centres and institutes, including the UNESCO-IHE Institute for Water Education in Delft in the Netherlands and over 60 UNESCO Chairs and affiliated research centres on water around the world, collectively the UNESCO water family. The successful implementation of the International Year of Water Cooperation 2013 under UNESCO\u2019s leadership on behalf of UN-Water, and the designation in 2013 of the Organization to ensure the position of Vice-Chair of UN-Water, brought enhanced visibility but also more responsibility to the Organization.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">Source:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/es.unesco.org\/node\/186412\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/es.unesco.org\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Dear User\/Visitor!
