Global Water Partnership Cacena

Today GWP CACENA is a well established regional actor, who helps the region to solve difficult inter-state water resources issues as well as the countries to develop an Integrated Water Resources Management approach in polices and practices. The concept of providing a neutral platform for dialogues has grown in significance since GWP CACENA was established in 2002. Within the next five year strategy period, 2009-2013, the regional water resources will have to be higher ranked on the policy agendas in order to meet combined challenges of social-economic development needs and climate change threats. During the first two year’s work plan 2009-2010 focus is set on helping countries to sustain cooperation around water bringing the key sectors together with regional and international actors in order to raise political will for cooperation via public awareness, increased capacity building activities by improved knowledge management and communication.
