This Second Workshop focuses on selected technical aspects in the work of joint bodies, notably inter-sectoral coordination, infrastructure, groundwater management, environmental protection and selected management issues, including financing and communication.
More specifically, the Second Workshop sets out to achieve the following objectives:
• Present and discuss the experience of joint bodies in specific technical topics in transboundary water cooperation worldwide, to enable identification of challenges and good practices and mutual learning;
• Demonstrate the value of joint action in addressing common problems, and benefits of transboundary cooperation;
• Discuss how the work on joint bodies could be continued under the Convention in the new work plan (2016-2018), and identify gaps and needs to that end;
• Increase awareness on how the global legal frameworks, in particular the Water Convention and the 1997 UN Watercourses Convention, their compatibility and mutual complementarity, as well as the 2008 ILC Draft articles on the Law of Transboundary Aquifers, relate to joint bodies and cansupport them.
