• Noureddine Gaaloul is a full Professor of Higher Education and Full Research in the National Research Institute for Rural Engineering, Water and Forestry (INRGREF-Tunis) of Sciences and Technology of Water at the Carthage University, Tunis. He is a water and climate expert with thirty years of international experience (FAO, UfM, EU, UNESCO, ICBA, UNIDO) in decision support studies for water resources management. He received his PhD from the University of Bordeaux I, France. His research focuses mainly on water resources modelling, water resources planning, management and development; Saltwater Intrusion and coastal aquifers and recharge aquifer. He published several papers and author or co-author of several reports, consulting and expertise reports. He participated in more than 60 International technical meetings in Europe, Africa, America and the Middle East. He is a president of the Scientific and Technical Association for Water and the Environment in Tunisia (ASTEETunisie) and member of the Scientific Advisory Committee, member of the Climate Research for Development (CR4D - UN Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA). I provided leadership to a large-scale programme, and also played a role in development of strategy and advocacy for the global water supply and sanitation sector. In the urban water supply and sanitation sector I have advised governments on water and sanitation sector reform, planned and implemented water supply and sanitation facilities for poor communities, and advised on the design of private sector participation in utility management to benefit the poor.
• From 1987 to day, he was responsible at the National Research Institute for Agricultural Engineering, Water, and Forestry, Ministry of Agriculture and Water Resources in Tunisia, (1) for setting up and managing a laboratory for research on sustainable management of agricultural water; (2) for leading the National Commission for Agricultural Water Research Programming and Evaluation; and (3) for coordinating the utilization of loans to Tunisia targeted on increasing research capability. He was thus able to influence the research directions and the results’ transfer with a strong focus on efficient agricultural water use. He was also a member of the team that drafted the Tunisian policy and regulations regarding water reuse and biosolids management. He has developed an extensive practical experience in those fields, both in Tunisia, other semi-arid areas of the Mediterranean region, the Middle East and in Africa.
• He has authored numerous papers and reports plus a number of contributions to books, reports, proceedings and conferences. Hhe has built, strengthened and led teams of professionals during her career and has developed partnerships with various organizations that led to the development of projects.
• He is member of different international boards and of various academies (Member of the CR4D Scientific Advisory Committee Member of the Climate Research for Development (CR4D) (UN Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA) in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, International Water Academy, World Academy of Sciences for the Advancement of Science in Developing Countries (TWAS), African Academy of Sciences), Founder and Chief Editor International Journal Water Science and Environment Technologies (jistee.org), Editorial Board Water Productivity Journal  (http://www.waterproductivity.net/journal/editorial.board), President of the Scientific and Technical Association for Water and the Environment in Tunisia (ASTEETunisie).
