Anaklaudia Rossbach, Executive Director of the UN-Habitat Programme, spoke at the World Urban Forum (WUF13) in Baku.
She stated that the recent intense rainfall in Azerbaijan demonstrated the country's preparedness for extreme weather events.
“The amount of precipitation was well above normal. Yet we saw how Azerbaijan, as the host of the forum, managed the situation,” Rossbach noted.
She also highlighted that over one billion people worldwide lack access to safe drinking water.
