Women’s participation in the water sector is a crucial aspect of achieving sustainable development goals. According to a report by The World Bank, less than one in five water workers are women, and they are underrepresented in technical and managerial positions.
During this webinar, we'll delve into two innovative EU-funded projects changing the water sector. Female scientists will showcase their work and aspirations, while the discussion session will address the primary challenges and potential solutions related to the status of women in the water sector.
The WE-ACT project is changing the game in transboundary water allocation by introducing a revolutionary Decision Support System (DSS) that optimizes benefits and enhances resilience in the face of a rapidly changing climate. The project is funded under the European Union’s Horizon Europe programme.
Hydro4U aims at demonstrating European small hydropower equipment and technologies in Central Asia thus contributing to a sustainable and climate-resilient future for the region. The project is funded under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 programme.
