Capacity Building for IWRM in Africa and the Caribbean

UNDP's Cap-Net Programme, in collaboration with GWP has completed the implementation of a three year project to strengthen capacity in water management in Africa and the Caribbean. Cap-Net worked closely with the GWP’s network of water partnerships and GWP participated in the preparation of activities and the identification of participants.

One result of the project is that training on community management of water resources has reached ten countries and is supporting strategies that contribute to the Millennium Development Goals on water, health and poverty.

During the three years of the project there were 26 courses for approximately 800 participants. The final report has been published and can be ordered via e-mail to gwp(at)gwpforum.org.
