Education

The project to build a School of Ecohealth was decided between the inhabitants of the village of Ngothie (Senegal) and an international team of researchers who propose to build sustainable and durable solutions to the current climatic challenges that lead to soil depletion and risk of famine in the coming years.

Building on IWRM, the WWC IWRM/transversality Task Force is working on a new vision of water management with the aim to have an impact on the delivery of SDGs, identify the barriers to scale up, and provide a systemic vision and clear directions towards equity in allocation of water across sectoral needs through dialogue and tradeoffs discussions with stakeholders (local communities, public and private sectors, academia, and governing bodies, etc.). Exploring the interlinkages between water, energy, food, health, and education will help in achieving synergies between these sectors.
