The Population and Vital Statistics Report series presents data for countries or areas on population size (total, male, and female) from the latest available census, estimated total population size for the later available year, and the number and rate of vital events (live births, deaths, and infant deaths) for the latest available year within the past 15 years. These data are presented as reported by national statistical authorities to the Demographic Yearbook of the Statistics Division of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs.The United Nations World Water Development Report
These reports annually focus on multiple strategic water issues. They aim to provide decision-makers with tools to implement sustainable use of our water resources. They include various regional aspects, hotspots, examples and stories, which make them relevant to a broad range of readers in various regions of the world. The reports were originally triennial and the first four editions were launched in conjunction with the World Water Forum in 2003, 2006, 2009 and 2012. Over time, the reports became increasingly facts-based and acquired a more specific thematic focus.
