The World Water Forum is the world's largest meeting on water. Every three years the World Water Council (WWC) holds the forum on or around World Water Day (22 March). This year, the event will take place 12 – 17 April in Daegu and Gyeongbuk (Republic of Korea).

The World Water Forum consists of at least three processes: the Political Process, the Thematic Process and the Regional Process, while gathering officials, legislators and local and regional authorities from more than 150 nations. Each topic is developed in cooperation with the private sector, governments, industry, IGOs, NGOs and academic groups into a common framework of goals and concrete targets to reach.

A highlight of the event is the 'Water security for Cities through integrated urban planning and services', where ICLEI Coordinator Barbara Anton will sit on the Interactive High Level Panel.
