IWRM emerging as key for development and addressing climate change

In 2010 the Central American Bank of Economic Integration (CABEI) and GWP Central America decided to draw up a formal agreement to advance IWRM as a fundamental approach to dealing with water security, climate change and achieving the Millennium Development Goals nationally and regionally.

The agreement was the result of meetings with bank representatives, successful joint initiatives and the participation of the CABEI Vice President in the 2010 GWP Consulting Partners Meeting. The new arrangement will raise the profile of water on the CABEI agenda and provide opportunities for GWP Central America and CABEI to collaborate on climate change, water and regional development.
