The Water Convention and the different activities carried out within its framework will be presented in different events organized during the Stockholm World Water Week that will be held from 31 August till 5 September 2014.
This year’s World Water Week is dedicated to water and energy. The energy and water theme will be addressed from two overall perspectives: the societal opportunities and challenges, and the cross-cutting issues. The World Water Week will provide the opportunity to promote the important progress in strengthening transboundary water cooperation achieved under the umbrella of the Water Convention.
