Today, 5 October 2015 at the Regional Council Meeting, Global Water Partnership Central and Eastern Europe is releasing a new video about the organization as part of a campaign for welcoming new Partners.
Bonn 19 May 2016 - Global Water Partnership (GWP) has launched a global programme to assist countries to implement the adaptation component of their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) – the climate plans submitted to the UNFCCC ahead of the Paris Agreement.
My name is Nompumelelo Ntshalintshali, Principal Water Development Analyst at the Department of Water Affairs in Lesotho. I am active in coordination and regulation within the water sector and have held various positions such as Chairperson of the National WASH Forum, Monitoring and Evaluation Focal person for the Africa Minister’s Council on Water.
The main challenge I face in my work is the realisation that I work in a male dominated environment. For me, meeting that challenge entails having a positive attitude – and that goes a long way. I have also discovered that sticking to my principles and maintaining a good work ethic helps me prove that I can make it.
My advice to women (and men) as we commemorate this day together is “keep focused, keep going, and keep your integrity!”
