INTERNATIONAL SECRETARIAT OF WATER (www.i-s-w.org)
Born of the will of a group of experienced practitioners of all sectors of international cooperation, the ISW is an international, non governmental organisation whose mandate is the application of the four principles stated in the Montreal Charter on Drinking Water and Sanitation adopted in June 1990: Benoît Mailloux will present us the report of the World Youth Parliament for Water in 2002 by posters and documentation realised by young people who have participated to the event. Within the context of a structured democratic debate (presentations, discussions, debates, votes, etc) the initiative gave young people from all regions of the world the opportunity to create a water law and to debate the following 4 themes:
- Access to water and sanitation as a fundamental human right
- Sustainability parameters: in particular, the cost of water services
- Local and national water governance
- International solidarity in water management issues
The documents of The ISW will be at the disposal to the public during all the event and Benoît Mailloux will be present on Sunday.
