On November 10th 2011, the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation is organizing a symposium on “Territorial governance of water in the Mediterranean: what experience and what solutions for local actors?” in the Principality of Monaco.
This symposium will be carried out in partnership with the United Nations Institute for Training and Research, the Plan Bleu and the International Office for Water (OIEAU) and Veolia Environnement, all of them founding partners of the Water Think Tank Méditerranée (WTT).
Through four thematic workshops, the symposium will introduce the work of the Water Think Tank Méditerranée since its creation during the World Water Forum of Istanbul in 2009.

Each workshop will gather 4 speakers. EMWIS President Mr. Walter MAZZITTI will introduce the symposium and the morning sessions.
The debates will be animated by a French journalist, Yolaine de la Bigne, founder and chief editor of Néoplanète.
