The 2014 World Water Week in Stockholm will take place August 31- September 5 under the theme “Energy and Water”.
Hosted and organised by SIWI, the World Water Week in Stockholm is the leading annual global event for concretely addressing the planet’s water issues and related concerns of international development. The Week attracts over 2,500 participants and 200 collaborating organisations from around 130 countries all over the world.
Leaders and experts from the world’s scientific, business, government and civic communities convene in Stockholm to exchange views, experiences and shape joint solutions to global water challenges.
