Similarly, in Moldova, the country’s GDP more than doubled between 2000-2017 (Figure 15), from USD 8.4 billion in 2000 up to 18.4 in 2017 (The World Bank, 2020), while total freshwater use per unit of GDP has decreased by about 60 % (not including information on the left bank of the Nistru/Dniester river). The efficiency of total water use per unit of GDP was reached by decreasing water use while maintaining the upward trend in GDP. In 2000, around 104 m3 of water was used in the country’s economy to produce USD 1 000 by the economy, which decreased to 43 m3 of water used in 2017 to produce the same unit of GDP. However, it should be noted that 43 m3 of water per GDP unit still is very high compared to other countries, and further water use efficiency improvements need to be made in the years to come.
