Water - a key element in UNESCO biosphere reserves

This new brochure presents ten projects that have been funded over the last three years by a cooperation of UNESCO, Danone Waters Germany and the German Commission for UNESCO. The brochure intends to demonstrate good practice in water management in biosphere reserve to our partners around the globe; as well as a successful public-private partnership. The 10 projects in German UNESCO biosphere reserves have been chosen from open calls for proposals and thus cover a wide range of approaches such as education, nature conservation as well as testing innovative technical solutions related to freshwater. The projects have one thing in common: They broght together partners that might not have cooperated under different circumstances. The UNESCO freshwater programme IHP was also involved.
