Global - Water footprint statistics - Water Footprint Network

Water footprint statistics have many uses – in Water Footprint Assessment studies, awareness raising and research projects, to inform public policies or company business strategies. Because the water footprint statistics have been formulated using the same methodology – the Global Water Footprint Standard – they are comparable and can be used to tell the complex story of water. This is critically important and valuable to advancing the application of Water Footprint Assessment.

To ensure that scientifically rigorous water footprint statistics are available for everyone to use, the Water Footprint Network develops and maintains WaterStat, the world’s most comprehensive water footprint database.
