Stage 2 activities assist countries in formulating IWRM responses to water resources management challenges that contribute to advancing SDG 6.5.1 and other broader water-related SDGs that are national priorities
During the 2017-2018 data drive conducted by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) to establish the baseline for SDG indicator 6.5.1, the SDG 6 IWRM Support Programme supported countries in convening multi-stakeholder consultation workshops to determine the current status of IWRM implementation and collect and discuss the official country data.
Under Stage 1, the initiative has already advanced the SDG reporting process in more than 30 countries. In fact, together with UN Environment-DHI, the custodian agency of SDG 6.5.1, GWP convened 36 workshops in 2017-2018 to collect the official country data for 6.5.1.

The aim of Stage 1 of the SDG 6 IWRM Support Programme is to strengthen IWRM monitoring and reporting nationally, in order to identify critical areas for attention.
