Given that the topic of Stockholm 2017 is 'water and waste: reduce and reuse’, one which has great relevance to our work in sustainable water management for food and agriculture, FAO will have a much greater role at World Water Week than in past years.

Please join us for a series of in-depth presentations and discussions on a variety of key topics.
