2nd Stakeholder Consultation Meeting

The 8th World Water Forum’s 2nd Stakeholders Consultation Meeting will be held 26-27 April, at the Ulysses Guimarães Convention Center, Brasília. The preparatory meeting takes place just under one year before the Forum event and will be articulated around the Forum’s central and transversal themes with a view to shaping the Forums preliminary program. More than 700 participants are expected to attend the 2nd Stakeholders Consultation Meeting as representatives of several sectors, such as: governments, enterprises, financial institutions, universities and NGOs. During the event, participants will be able to evaluate the preparation of the Forum and discuss important issues from each Forum’s Processes. The meeting takes place about a year prior to the 8th Forum event, which will be held 18-23 March 2018 in Brasília, Brazil.  As follow-up to the Kick-Off Meeting, which launched Forum preparations in June 2016, the 2nd Stakeholder Consultation Meeting will allow the coordinators of the commissions involved in the Forum’s organization—Thematic Process, Political Process, Regional Process, Citizen’s Forum Process and Sustainability Focus Group—to evaluate the evolution of the contents produced since 2016. Participants will also be able to give their opinion on the themes for the thematic sessions. Register here
