News WANA Water Policy Brief presented in Marseille during the World Water Forum

WANA Forum Water Policy Brief was presented in Marseille during the World Water Forum last Friday, 16 March 2012. This report titled: "Regional solutions for water scarcity in West Asia and North Africa" is based on the WANA Forum Consultation: “Toward Supranational Mechanisms in Addressing the Challenges of Water Scarcity In WANA”, which took place in Amman, Jordan, 22-24 February, 2011. 

The WANA (West Asia - North Africa) Forum is a long-term initiative that brings together decision-makers, civil society organisations, religious leaders, researchers, business owners, media representatives and other relevant regional stakeholders. It employs a participatory methodology in the work of the annual Forum and interim consultations, and seeks to engage the public in the process. The facilitator and guardian of the process is His Royal Highness Prince El Hassan bin Talal, with the generous support of The Nippon Foundation. Several authors & organisations contributed to that report, among others EMWIS.
