World Water Forum preparation, March 2012, Marseille (France) - Topic 1.5 "Contribute to Cooperation and Peace", Target 7 - Collection of solutions
In the framework of the preparation of the next World Water Forum,
which will be held in Marseille in March 2012, EMWIS has been appointed as Coordinator for the Target 7, of the
theme Contribute to Cooperation and Peace.
The target 7 is related to the setting up of Water Information Systems at Transboundary level and is worded as follows: By 2018, develop mechanisms to share
and monitor information at the transboundary level especially on (i) scientific
and social data for information systems: contribution to an online inventory and
establishment of a water observatory, and (ii) indicators and guidelines for
programmes monitoring the quality of cooperation and the impact of the lack of
access to water on cooperation and peace-building.
Our objective is to present during the Forum the existing or
innovative solutions, and to get if possible commitments on their
achievement (solution = case studies illustrating real solutions that are
sufficiently relevant to be selected for the Forum).
According to the
timeframe defined by the ICF (International Forum Committee), the identification
and collection of solutions have to be done in September and October
2011. These "solutions" will form the basis for presentations and
discussions at the Forum session.
Knowing your interest in the
instruments for managing transboundary waters and given your expertise in this
domain, You are asked to contribute by sending us your suggestions
and proposed solutions / case studies, that will illustrate this target.
You can send your proposals to the following email :
info@semide.org or e.mino@semide.org
You can also contribute through the web site concerning the solutions
