Soroptimist International of the Southwest Pacific (SISWP), Women for Water Partnership, and Netwwater are organising a digital event on 26 July on the theme "Women, Water, Climate: The Way Forward". The event is a follow-up to a series on the same theme last year.
After three years of intensive work, the GEMWET project has successfully concluded, proving that environmental conservation and sustainable development is a win-win recipe that benefits communities, promotes economic prosperity and ensures the protection of natural resources.
A Learning exchange on gender mainstreaming in water resources management (WRM) was organised on September 16th, 2021, to present the findings of the study on that topic. The event was also used as a platform to better understand and discuss how to advance on the key enablers and overcome common bottlenecks for gender mainstreaming in WRM, for those working on SDG 6.5 and SDG 5; and to understand the need for support from national governments and other stakeholders to advance in this key area for sustainable development.
The Transboundary Freshwater Security Governance Train heads to the next stop on 15 June 2022. The 11th online interactive session explores the multi-level governance (MLG) in the transboundary water context with a particular focus on disaster management, such as flood management.
On 30 September 2021, the day following his designation as new chair od GWP-WA, Mr. Abdoulaye SENE officially took up office after hand over ceremony with the outgoing chair, Prof. Amadou Hama MAIGA.
Over the past year and a half, GWP has been proud to work alongside committed partners in the water and sanitation sector to ensure that the Global Goal on Adaptation (GGA) includes how climate-resilient water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) services can be integrated in the Framework’s ‘water’ theme.
