2026 UN Water Conference | Abu Dhabi, UAE


Ahead of this significant conference, we would like to share with you that Conference Stakeholders’ accreditation is now open. As the facilitator of the Global Taskforce, UCLG will function as the umbrella organization for accreditations. Members who have not yet completed the accreditation process are kindly invited to complete this form by 23 October. The information collected will support the accreditation process and help us ensure effective coordination across the constituency ahead of the Conference. For coordination purposes, we kindly ask our members to inform UCLG-MEWA at ir@uclg-mewa.org once they have completed the form.

In this context, we would like to inform you that the Local and Regional Governments Forum has now been confirmed as part of the official program of the Conference and will take place on the second day, 9 December 2026, 13:00-15:00 GST. The Forum will provide a dedicated space for the local and regional government constituency to strengthen our collective advocacy and joint messaging towards the United Nations.

A draft Concept Note of the forum is available at this link. Further information on the program and opportunities for engagement will be shared in due course.

We will continue to provide updates as soon as available. Until then, we thank you in advance for your engagement and contributions.

Should you have any questions or need further facilitation, please do not hesitate to contact us. We look forward to facilitating this valuable opportunity for our members.
