The “Workshop on recent progress on transboundary water cooperation: from getting cooperation started to its long-term sustainability” will be held in the Palais des Nations in Geneva on Tuesday, 4 July 2017, back-to-back with the twelfth meeting of the Working Group on Integrated Water Resources Management (WGIWRM) under the Water Convention (5-6 July 2017).

The main objective of the workshop is to support countries and basin organizations in advancing step-by-step their cooperation on transboundary surface and ground waters, especially with regard to the development and revision of agreements, and setting up and sustaining joint bodies.

The Geneva Water Hub provided financial support for the organization as well as facilitators for discussions.
