Since 2021, the Global Water Partnership (GWP) has been organising an interactive online series called the “Transboundary freshwater security governance train” together with our partners. Within its first three seasons, 14 online sessions were conducted as a ‘train’ stopping at various locations in the world, with a focus on topics related to transboundary water governance, international water law and water diplomacy. After a short stop, the train is back on track in October 2023 for Season 4 and will ‘travel around’ to focus on various aspects of transboundary water management until the end of the year.
The best way to tackle complex issues such as water resources management is for all affected stakeholders to work together. Multi-stakeholder processes are at the heart of Integrated Water Resources Management and as such are a cornerstone of the intervention logic of the SDG 6 IWRM Support Programme.
