To foster collective action at national level for the development of such roadmaps, FAO is organizing regional workshops on the National Water Roadmaps. The aim of these workshops is to inform FAO Members about the overall role of water for sustainable development and to provide a platform for all stakeholders, including governments, international organizations, civil society, the private sector and academia, to discuss and develop country-specific National Water Roadmaps, taking into consideration of regional and national perspectives. These regional workshops will also prepare countries for their participation and contribution to the UN 2023 Water Conference. UN Resident Coordinators will be informed and invited to the workshop, to ensure coherence of the roadmaps with the UN Cooperation Framework at country level.

The first regional workshop on National Water Roadmaps will focus on Africa, and will be held in person in Harare, Zimbabwe, and virtually on Zoom Platform from 22 to 24 February 2023.
