This landmark event is a catalyst for improved collaboration between business, government and civil society to improve water security across East Africa.  It will equip participants with a state-of-the art understanding of water stewardship, and of how its benefits can be harnessed by business, government and civil society alike.  It brings the world’s leading experts on water stewardship together with leaders, practitioners and policy makers to discuss how water can be better managed to secure inclusive and sustainable economic growth.

The Mandate and the Global Water Challenge (GWC) will hold a joint convening on March 23rd, 2016 in Washington, DC to discuss strategies and platforms that promote partnerships to tackle today’s water challenges. The multi-stakeholder session will explore some of the most successful corporate water stewardship strategies and how they may be aligned with U.S.-government-led approaches for increased water security around the world. It will build upon the World Water Day events held on March 22nd in Washington, DC and look to see where there may be opportunities for increased cooperation by all sectors. Space is limited for the event, to register, please send an email to Mai-Lan Ha (mlha@pacinst.org) with your name, organization/company, title, and email address.
