Recently human beings face serious water crisis, namely water management at the critical moment because of rapid increasing in population, subordinate part of a national budget, water pollution by domestic use and industrial use or waste, agricultural water use by intensive market farming, excessive development and extraction of water sources, and etc. We become to recognize that water and sanitation is the one of most important part which is threatening us with a drain on the water resources and death around the world and then are making opportunities of discussion for water policies and solutions of water problems through international network such as Global Water Partnership(GWP), World Water council(WWC). World Water Forum(WWF), as one of main water-related activities, aims at sharing knowledge and experience among various stakeholders for accomplishing a holistic water resources management by making common thoughts regarding the necessity of integration among different organizations related with water management, problems and issues. Also the unity of each local area for the holistic approach focuses on showing present local actions and actively supporting them, and suggesting new ideas. With Korea's participation in the 4th WWF this year, Korean government should have consistency in its establishment and implementation of sustainable water resources policies as a more active and future-oriented member of international water network. Finally it will be necessary that we will set up an organization and system which does publicity activities about results of various local actions of Korea around the world through next WWF in the future and contribute to solving global water problems.
