The aim of the World Water Week in Stockholm is to serve, on an annual basis, as the main arena for an exchange of views and experiences between members of the scientific, business, policy and civil society communities in order to advance efforts related to water, the environment, livelihoods and poverty reduction. The World Water Week in Stockholm:
builds capacity for different professions to act and to affect positive change by facilitating for them an increased knowledge and a deeper understanding of the links between water-society-environment-economy;
promotes partnerships and alliances between individuals and organisations from different fields of expertise in an inspiring atmosphere which offers ample opportunity for making new contacts and strengthening existing relationships; and
reviews the implementation of actions, commitments and decisions in international processes and by different stakeholders in response to the challenges.
By serving as a link between practice, science, policy and decision-making, the World Water Week moves beyond simply talking about what is and what should be by combining different types of knowledge and experiences to achieve development and environmental objectives in a worthwhile manner.

Early bird rates of approximately US$800 are available before 30 June 2007. Registration after 30 June will cost approximately US$890. Student fees are US$175.

The aim of the World Water Week in Stockholm is to serve, on an annual basis, as the main arena for an exchange of views and experiences between members of the scientific, business, policy and civil society communities in order to advance efforts related to water, the environment, livelihoods and poverty reduction. The World Water Week in Stockholm:
builds capacity for different professions to act and to affect positive change by facilitating for them an increased knowledge and a deeper understanding of the links between water-society-environment-economy;
promotes partnerships and alliances between individuals and organisations from different fields of expertise in an inspiring atmosphere which offers ample opportunity for making new contacts and strengthening existing relationships; and
reviews the implementation of actions, commitments and decisions in international processes and by different stakeholders in response to the challenges.
By serving as a link between practice, science, policy and decision-making, the World Water Week moves beyond simply talking about what is and what should be by combining different types of knowledge and experiences to achieve development and environmental objectives in a worthwhile manner.
