GWP Highlights Activities in Egypt
The September issues of News Flows, the newsletter of the Global Water Partnership (GWP), features articles on several GWP conferences and projects, including on: flood management in Pakistan; groundwater management in Peru; and climate resilience in the Nile Basin.
A workshop organized by GWP Egypt and the Delta Alliance identified water storage among farming communities as a critical component in understanding climate resilience in Egypt. The workshop, which took place from 16-17 June 2013, in Cairo, Egypt, identified country level pilot projects, and agreed on objectives and outcomes for pilot activities. These activities will be incorporated into a project proposal for building Egypt's climate resilience. The workshop and project will contribute to GWP's Global Delta Governance Programme and the Enabling Delta Life initiative.
