2nd NENA Land and Water Days, Cairo, Egypt
Hybrid Event, 31/03/2019 - 04/04/2019
The aim of Land and Water Days is to increase awareness of the role of sustainable land and water management in improving local livelihoods.
FAO organizes Land and Water Days in coordination with the International Fund for Agricultural Development and the World Food Programme. Land and Water Days are opportunities for exchanging innovative approaches and lessons learned on sustainable land, soil and water management among practitioners, country representatives and other stakeholders and for promoting the uptake of best practices.
The Near East and North Africa Land and Water Days are being convened on 31 March-4 April 2019 in Cairo, to review the progress made in addressing water scarcity in the region, foster exchange of knowledge and experience among countries and partners and chart the way forward taking into account the lessons learned, the new challenges to and opportunities for sustainable development. The event will focus on the NENA region but will link to the global perspective through the participation of countries and experts from other regions (Asia, Africa, and Latin America) to provide for inter-regional insights and knowledge sharing.
