Advancing Knowledge and Shaping the Path Forward

Building on Egypt’s National Strategy 2030 for sustainable development, the Water Knowledge Project has successfully completed its journey, significantly contributing to the sustainable management of water resources and promoting a shared vision for water governance in Egypt and the wider region. Throughout the project, a comprehensive capacity development program addressed the technical, environmental, institutional, and socio­economic aspects of water resource planning and management. By enhancing the capabilities of key institutions such as the Ministry of Water Resources and Irrigation (MWRI) and establishing Egypt as a hub for regional water training services, the project has created a strong foundation for the future. This foundation supports Egyptian officials, along with those from Arab and African nations, in advancing water governance and resilience in the face of growing environmental challenges. By bringing together experts, policymakers, and stakeholders, this session aims to lay the groundwork for the next phase of the Water Knowledge Project. It will ensure that the momentum created during the first phase is carried forward, with an expanded scope and enhanced impact, contributing to the sustainable governance of water resources in Egypt and across the region.
