6.4.1 Change in water-use efficiency over time

6.4 By 2030, substantially increase water-use efficiency across all sectors and ensure sustainable withdrawals and supply of freshwater to address water scarcity and substantially reduce the number of people suffering from water scarcity

Goal 6. Ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all

Change in water-use efficiency (WUE) over time represents a ration of gross value added and total water abstracted by aggegated sections of the Classification of Activities. 

The source of data is the statistical survey of the Statistical Office of the Republic of Serbia  in the area of water statistics and National Accounts data.

For the calculation of indicators, all sections of the Classification of Activites are aggregated into three groups:

Agriculture, forestry and fishing - A;

Industry - B-D; F;

Service activities - E; G-S.

Efficiency of water use is calculated when water use efficiency in the aggregated group and the share of abstracted water in total water abstraction are multiplied.
