International Conference on Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM): Lessons from Implementation in Developing Countries and the 2nd Africa Regional meeting of the National Committees of UNESCO’s International Hydrological Programme
On the occasion of the 10 year anniversary into the implementation of the
South African Water Law, the Water Research Commission of South Africa in
partnership with the UNESCO International Hydrological Programme (IHP) focal
point, the Department of Water Affairs and Forestry and the Water Institute
of Southern Africa are organising a three day conference aimed at sharing
experiences and lessons on IWRM from developing countries. The intention of
the conference is to create a platform for practitioners and policy makers
in the developing world to share their experiences in the implementation of
IWRM.
The conference is not exclusive to developing countries but is an
opportunity for dialogue between developing countries’ experiences and the
developed world as well as the donor society on the latest lessons and
implementation experiences that can shape new concepts or adapting existing
ones.
