7th World Water Forum releases its Thematic Framework

The World Water Council is pleased to announce that the 7th World Water Forum has recently released the final version of its Thematic Framework. The framework was built on the outcomes of the Kick- off meeting that was held last May in Daegu, Republic of Korea, and will serve as building blocks for the preparatory process that will pave the way to the Forum week in 2015.

It highlights human, economic and environmental needs in three main action goals. In order to achieve these goals, a special focus is being made on implementation mechanisms that will be used to define action tools. It is at the intersection of the Goals and Tools that progress can be made. 

On 27 and 28 February 2014 in Gyeongju, Republic of Korea, the 2nd Stakeholders Consultation Meeting will serve to delve deeper into the 7th World Water Forum Framework.

Important questions that will help shape the Forum will be addressed during this meeting. If you would like to be active and support the preparation of the next World Water Forum, save the date and keep an eye on the dedicated page on the World Water Council and 7th World Water Forum websites as the event approaches.
