12- 17 mars 2012 : ONEMA participates to the 6th World Water Forum

The World water forum is organised every three years for water stakeholders to discuss water issues, share experiences and plan for the future. The 6th forum will be the moment to decide on realistic solutions to meet the major challenges facing water worldwide. These solutions, proposed by the entire international community, will be presented at the forum in order to obtain solid commitments for their effective implementation, taking into account financial, social and environmental constraints.

Issues include good governance and the performance of public water and sanitation services, river restoration, green growth and the promotion of ecosystem services, climate change, links between science and water policy, etc. Using its experience and know‐how, Onema, the central organisation in France for water and aquatic environments, has participated in preparing solutions and will take part in the official sessions and the side events organised during this full week of meetings dedicated to water issues.
