About the Webinar Series

The series of webinars on ‘Water Governance Analysis for Transformational Change’ will first be an opportunity to draw lessons and share experiences from the last two years and pilot governance analyses undertaken in five countries in the NENA region. Second, it will open up to other regions and networks to understand some of the dynamics in water governance at the global level, and reflect on the way forward to strengthen water governance for people, the planet and prosperity.

Module 2: Going global. Key water governance priorities and insights for future

The second module will start on 11 January 2023 and will focus on lessons that can be drawn from the analyses undertaken and possible priorities for the NENA region. Introductory presentations will also elaborate on water tenure and water governance interconnectedness and differences. The module will continue with other webinars moving around the world with examples from Europe, Asia, and Latin America and the Caribbean, broadening the scope of the use of water governance analysis and looking at other methodologies and experiences. The speakers will help envision how to further support the increased use of governance analysis to ensure water security.

This module will involve experts in the field including water tenure experts engaged in the FAO Knowing Water Better (KnoWat) project and the inter-regional Technical Platform on Water Scarcity (iRTP– WS).

In addition to speakers, the webinars will also engage water sector ‘reform champions’ from the concerned countries as well as local stakeholders. The series will involve a Q&A session with facilitation by master’s students at the Paris School of International Affairs (Sciences Po Paris).

The series targets interested people involved in water management and governance, and in economic sectors of use, agriculture in primis. The target audience includes FAO staff, stakeholders working in the public sector, decision-makers, development practitioners, academics, and others.
