SUMMARY:Water Security and Climate Change Conference
DESCRIPTION:The Water Security and Climate Change conference (WSCC) is an annual event where scientists\, policy makers and stakeholders from various sectors discuss the diverse facets of water security and its relation to climate variability and change. \nThe WSCC strives to go beyond science and build bridges between various disciplines and sectors as well as different groups of stakeholders. Serving as a platform for discussions about water and food secure societies\, by providing a stimulating environment with the intention of yielding innovative ideas and grounds for implementation\, the WSCC is continuing a series of successful conferences in Thailand\, Germany\, Kenya and Mexico. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe WSCC is an initiative of the ‘Higher Education Excellence in Development Cooperation – exceed’ program\, and has been implemented since 2016 under the auspices of the Centers for Natural Resources and Development (CNRD) and the Sustainable Water Management in Developing Countries (SWINDON) network. The scientific committee includes the Food Security Center (FSC) as well as the Asian Institute of Technology (AIT). \nIn 2021\, WSCC is convened by the Vietnam Academy for Water Resources (VAWR) in Hanoi. Due to the currently uncertain situation\, we have decided to implement the Water Security and Climate Change (WSCC) conference in a virtual format. Participation will be free of charge and open to the public. The registrations are now open!

SUMMARY:Virtual Summer School // Analysing Transformative Processes for the Management of the WEF nexus and the Advancement of the SDGs in Sub-Saharan Africa
DESCRIPTION:Young researchers based in or originating from sub-Saharan Africa together with young researchers from Germany are invited to apply for this virtual WEF Nexus summer school. The event will take place online and run from the evening of March 7th to March 12th 2021.

SUMMARY:The 9th World Water Forum
DESCRIPTION:About\nThe 9th World Water Forum will take place in Dakar from 22 to 27 March 2021. The objective of Senegal and the World Water Council is to organize a more socially\, politically and economically effective Forum\, a catalyst for action for commitments on water and sanitation\, a connected Forum\, linked to the agendas\, platforms and commitments on SDGs\, the Sendai agreement on natural risks and disasters\, the Paris agreement on climate\, Africa’s 2063 agenda\, etc. \nThe Forum will also be an opportunity for Senegal and the World Water Council to exchange views on the future of water and sanitation\, and a contextualized\, global and community-based Forum anchored on key water challenges in Africa and around the world. \nThus\, it is important to underline that previous editions of the World Water Forum included three major processes: thematic\, political and regional. However\, the 9th Forum intends to mark a break with the institutional organisation of past Foraums It is centred on an integrated preparation based on quality\, multi-actor exchanges around a limited number of priorities integrating the previous tools of the processes: thematic\, political\, regional\, citizen. \nThe “Dakar 2021” Forum will focus on four priorities\, namely: \n\nWater Security and Sanition\nCooperation\nWater for rural development\nMeans and Tools  including the crucial issues of financing\, governance\, knowledge management and innovation; four axes that constitute priorities for Africa\, but also for the world as a whole.\n\nThe process will be led by specialized working groups structured around the 4 priorities. Each working group will be led by Senegal and the World Water Council\, and supported by strategic partners (governments\, intergovernmental\, bilateral and multilateral organizations\, financial institutions and non-governmental organizations). The strategic partners should play a leading role from the preparatory process to the organization of the Forum. \nFor more information visit the World Water Forum website
