ANEW South Asia FAN-CA

FAN Activitities at the WSSD

FAN's activities at the WSSD were based in the WaterDome from 28 August to 3 September. Here FAN coordinated a large exhibition space and meeting room, called the Thirst World, where 40 NGOs from all over the world came to exhibit, meet and participate in the WaterDome workshops.

The Thirst World was set up for NGOs from across the world to showcase their work in a creative and positive way. It provided a refreshing counter-balance to the large institutional exhibitors at the WaterDome (Donors, World Bank, Governments, UN etc) and a space to demonstrate alternative, pro-poor and environmentally sustainable approaches to securing water supplies for people's basic needs, for food security and for ecosystems.

FAN members also held a full programme of very interesting meetings in the WaterDome.

Overall this project was a success in that it managed to bring together a quality group of NGOs, from all regions, and representing both large international organisations to smaller, younger local NGOs. The range of issues represented was diverse and the quality of experience the participants brought to the WaterDome was very high.
