in Munich, Germany, 13-17 September 2010
Through networking and knowledge sharing, UNESCO-UNEVOC promotes and supports the development of skills and technical and institutional capacities for education and training of water technicians in order to enhance the quality of life by improving access to safe drinking water and sanitation services.
To enable and broaden networking and exchange on TVET issues relevant to water and sanitation services, UNESCO-UNEVOC participated in the IFAT Entsorga Trade Fair for Water, Sewage, Waste and Raw Materials Management
in Munich from 13 to 17 September 2010. The UN-Water Decade Programme on Capacity Development (UNW-DPC) in partnership with the Deutsche Vereinigung für Wasserwirtschaft, Abwasser und Abfall (German Association for Water, Wastewater and Waste (DWA)), invited the UN-Water Interagency Group of which UNESCO-UNEVOC is a member, to participate in the joint UN booth at this fair.
UNESCO-UNEVOC exhibited Education for Sustainable Development related publications and informational materials to a large public. Over the five days of being part of the UN-Water Interagency Group during IFAT ENTSORGA 2010, around 150 visitors, water professionals and TVET experts representing 30 institutions from over 20 countries came to the UNESCO-UNEVOC booth. After Germany, the top 10 countries of origin for visitors were: India, Lao People's Democratic Republic, Republic of Korea, Zambia, Egypt, Jordan, Turkey, France, Italy and Romania. They had shown strong interests in the development of technical and institutional capacities for education and training of water technicians.
