Global UN Water Week Event – Conference
On Tuesday, 22nd March, Thabisa Manxodidi and Aimée Sutherland attended the main event which included a panel discussion with the Hon. Edna Molewa (Minister of Water and Environmental Affairs, South Africa and President of AMCOW), Mr. Tim Kasten (Deputy Director, Division of Environmental Policy Implementation, UNEP and Vice Chair of UN-Water) and His Royal Highness Prince Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands (Chair of UNSGAB). In addition to initiating debates and discussions to address the key issues of “Water and Urbanization”, the event also included an exhibition, which allowed for various organizations and companies to network and share ideas. This afforded Thabisa and Aimée the opportunity to both learn from peers and see new techniques/technologies used internationally.
