Republic of the Congo - Institutions and Participation

Action 5 - Involving all stakeholders in water resource management

In 2019, the Congo General Directorate of Hydraulics, with the support of the Congo Country Water Partnership and GWP Central Africa, brought together stakeholders from government agencies, development partners, NGOs, and civil society to define a series of strategic actions for advancing on IWRM in the Republic of the Congo. The following action was defined as part of that process and identified as a priority action to be included in an action plan.

The purpose of this action is to ensure involvement of all stakeholders in water resources management. It aims to reach this goal by carrying out a stakeholder analysis, organising training sessions, fostering a knowledge-sharing environment among stakeholders, and promoting involvement of women and youth in decision-making.
