The 5th World Water Forum: the world’s largest water event
The 5th World Water Forum was opened in Istanbul, Turkey on March 16, 2009.
The forum will continue till March 22, 2009. A variety of events throughout
the week aim to focus on just one overarching theme: "Bridging Divides for
Water".
The World Water Forum is the main water-related event in the world, aimed at
putting water firmly on the international agenda. A stepping stone towards
global collaboration on water problems, the Forum offers the water community
and policy-and-decision-makers from all over the world the unique
opportunity to come together to create links, debate and attempts to find
solutions to achieve water security. It is organised every three year by the
World Water Council, in collaboration with the host country.
