Among the topics to be covered during the workshop are: the use of shared rivers and underground aquifers; cross-border pollution issues; safe drinking water. There will likely also be the opportunity to visit a local water purification plant.

Applications are invited from young scientists, policymakers and diplomats, especially from developing countries.
