With innovative ideas from young Tunisians, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) concluded in Tunisia the Regional Conference on Improving Water Productivity in Agriculture in the Near East and North Africa.

Rich in scientific discussion and specialized concurrent training sessions, the conference benefited from the expertise of participants from 23 countries and served as a platform for exchanging knowledge and best practices.

The Collaborative Platform on Water Productivity developed within the regional Initiative on Water Scarcity and other advanced products introduced by FAO and its partners at the market place allowed participants to have first-hand experience of these tools and their benefits.
