The Geneva Water Hub contributed to this webinar presenting the Global High Level Panel on Water and Peace’s vision on groundwater and hydrodiplomacy, as well as its applied interstate dialogue on the Senegalese-Mauritanian Aquifer Basin (SMAB). As mentioned by the Pôle Eau Dakar, it’s essential to develop and foster a network on water diplomacy in the region to address challenges related to groundwater.

A detailed debriefing of the session is available on the Global Water Partnership West Africa (GWP-WA) website on this page.

La Commission de l'UEMOA, avec l'appui du Partenariat mondial pour l'eau en Afrique de l'Ouest(GWP-AO) et d'autres partenaires, organise un atelier régional sur " la gouvernance concertée et la gestion durable des aquifères partagés ". L'événement, qui se déroulera du 28 au 29 septembre 2023, réunira plus de cinquante (50) participants issus des pays membres de l'UEMOA, des organismes de bassin, des organisations régionales et internationales (OSS, Geneva Water Hub, CILSS, etc.) et des personnes ressources.

Experts from Member States, Transboundary Basin Organizations and Regional Organizations work together to build capacity and define strategic and operational actions to be implemented.
