Event The 3rd General Assembly of the African Network of Basin Organizations – ANBO

On the occasion of this international conference, several workshops will be jointly organized with the Network of International Commissions and Transboundary Basin Organizations – INTBO, as the topics planned for water resources management in Africa are of prime importance. The work of the General Assembly of Johannesburg will be thus organized around five broad strategic topics for the good implementation of basin management of transboundary rivers, lakes and aquifers in Africa and over the World:
 Integrated water resources management in Africa: case studies,
 International Initiatives and Facilities for water in Africa,
 Statutes, responsibilities and processes for the creation of transboundary basin organizations,
 Preparation of management and action plans for transboundary basins and their financing,
 Monitoring, monitoring networks and information systems for transboundary basin management.

The meeting is open to all ANBO Member Organizations and Permanent Observers, and also to the water Administrations and organizations, interested in Integrated Water Resources Management in transboundary basins all over the World.
