Andre Azoulay, Director General of UNESCO, said that before getting out of this global crisis, there is an urgent need to get out of the international system. The editor-in-chief of the UN report said, 'Water is like blood for humanity. It is essential for the life, health, resilience, and development of people. Time is not on our side and there is a lot to do. This report shows that we aim to come together and take action. This is our time to bring a change.
