Saudi Water Forum, organised under the patronage of Minister of Environment, Water, and Agriculture, Eng Abdulrahman bin Abdulmohsin Al-Fadhli, will be held in Riyadh on 17-19 March, 2019 to tackle Saudi Arabia’s and the region’s anticipated water shortages, as well as help the kingdom to secure water resources for the future.

As the forum’s website explains, Saudi Arabia’s per capita water consumption is among the world’s highest, which „is in conflict with the environmental conditions of the kingdom“. 

Saudi’s average water consumption is 263 litres per capita each day, and the kingdom aims to reduce this to 200 litres by 2020, and 150 litres by 2030.
