The Water for Asian Cities (WAC) Programme, is a collaborative initiative between the United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN-HABITAT), the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and Governments of Asia. The WAC Programme was officially launched at the Third World Water Forum (WWF) on 18 March 2003 and a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was signed between ADB and UN-HABITAT on the same day in Osaka, Japan. This programme is supporting the implementation of the water and sanitation related Millennium Development goals and targets (MDGs & MDTs) in Asian cities, specially promoting pro-poor governance, water demand management, increased attention to water and sanitation; and income generation for the poor linked to water supply and sanitation.
