everal Mediterranean countries are suffering from water scarcity, unsustainable management of water resources, vulnerability to climate change, pollution and lack of sanitation infrastructure and suitable treatment technologies. These problems are often worsened by lack of governance and supporting legislative tools.

Increasing pressure on water resources in the region encompasses various challenges:

  • Governance challenges (role of the state / private; good governance; decentralized /international cooperation; participation of civil society)
  • Socio-economic challenges (distribution of water resources; choice of economic development mode; infrastructure funding)
  • Ecological challenges (water pollution ; climate change ; threat to the biodiversity; desertification)
  • Health challenges (sickness due to water scarcity or poor quality )
  • Scientific and technical challenges (the supply efficiency improvement ; rational use of water ; desalination)
  • Stability and peace challenges (conflicts; food insecurity ; migrations)

The organization of the 7th edition of the International Conference on Water Resources in the Mediterranean Basin: WATMED7 aims bringing together the competencies in the Mediterranean basin in order to mobilize innovations, knowledge and expertise for advancing the cause of water, expanding the exchange of experiences and research results and allowing to initiate regional cooperation initiatives.
