The purpose of this conference is to take the ISARM initiative in Africa one stage further. This will include providing support for the sub regional ISARM expert networks which have been developing sub regional actions in the South African Development Community (SADC) and West Africa, drawing on suggestions made in the ISARM Framework Document (2000).
The scope of the Conference will also include the establishment of a Plan of Action for Shared Aquifer systems resources management in Africa as a whole, taking into consideration the requirements of the region. This will provide support to both the African Union and the African Ministerial Council on Water.
