English version below Chers collègues, Le dialogue régional sur les grands barrages lancé en 2009 a permis de rédiger des lignes directrices (ci-jointes) qui ont été validées par le comité technique des experts de l’eau de la CEDEAO. Ces recommandations seront prochainement portées par une Directive cadre mais une réflexion sur leur mise en œuvre concrète demeure nécessaire. Une conférence régionale organisée à Ouagadougou du 21 au 23 janvier 2013 par le partenariat CCRE/GWI/UICN/IIED a permis de lancer la réflexion, et a fait ressortir leçons et défis à relever (voir communiqué final ci-joint). Pour ouvrir plus largement le débat, nous proposons un forum électronique sur trois semaines du lundi 4 février au vendredi 22 février 2013, en suivant le même principe que la discussion en ligne tenue en 2009, qui avait permis de tirer de riches enseignements pour le dialogue. Les échanges seront menés à raison d’un thème par semaine pouvant regrouper plusieurs recommandations. Si vous êtes intéressés à participer pour partager votre expérience et vos réflexions, ou bien simplement suivre les débats, merci de bien vouloir répondre à ce message en utilisant l’adresse dialoguebarrages2013(a)gmail.com<mailto:dialoguebarrages2013@gmail.com>. Merci de préciser dans votre message vos nom, prénom, fonction, organisation, pays et ville. Ceci est très important pour l’analyse globale du forum. Vous serez ensuite inscrits dans un groupe de discussion qui permettra à chacun de partager librement son point de vue sur les thèmes proposés. Mathieu Isnard sera le modérateur et vous donnera les informations nécessaires lors du lancement du premier thème le lundi 4 février. N’hésitez pas à diffuser largement ce message dans vos réseaux professionnels ou privés, afin de permettre à d’autres collègues ou amis de participer. Bien cordialement, ________________________________ Dear colleagues, The regional dialogue on large dams, launched in 2009, resulted in a set of guidelines (see attached) which were recently validated by the technical experts’ committee of ECOWAS’ water center. The guidelines will soon be supported further through a framework directive, but their implementation still merits further effort. A regional conference, organised in Ouagadougou the 21st-23rd of January 2013 by WRCC/GWI/IUCN/IIED, allowed for the discussions to start and for the participants to identify lessons learned and challenges to address (see the attached communiqué final). To open up the debate, an electronic forum is proposed to be held between Monday 4th and Friday 22nd of February, 2013, in the same way as the initial e-discussion held in 2009, which gave valuable insights for the dialogue. The discussion will be focused on one topic per week to address several of the ECOWAS recommendations. If you are interested in participating in the discussion and share your experiences, or if you would just like to follow the discussions, please respond to this message to the following email address: dialoguebarrages2013(a)gmail.com<mailto:dialoguebarrages2013@gmail.com>. Please specify your full name, function, organisation, city and country. This information will be very important for the general analysis of the forum. After responding to this email, you will be included in a discussion group. Then each participant will be able to freely share his or her point of view on the proposed themes. Mathieu Isnard will be moderating and will also provide you with the necessary information as the forum is launched on Monday, February 4th. Please feel free to distribute this message widely within your professional or private networks in order to allow for other colleagues or friends to participate.

[Forum dialogue on dams] TR: Launch of the Nexus Dialogue on Water Infrastructure Solutions
by ROCCA Marcello 01 Feb '13

English version below Nexus Dialogue - Solutions pour les infrastructures de l'eau L'Union Internationale pour la Conservation de la Nature (UICN) et l'International Water Association (IWA) lancent aujourd'hui l'initiative « Nexus Dialogue - Solutions pour les infrastructures de l'eau ». Ce dialogue vise à construire des partenariats pour favoriser l'innovation technologique et la recherche de solutions pour la construction d'infrastructures de l'eau qui tiennent compte des nouvelles exigences issues de l'étroite interaction entre la production et l'utilisation de l'eau, de l'énergie et de l'alimentation. Pour plus d'informations téléchargez le flyer en pièce jointe ou rendez-vous sur le site web www.waternexussolutions.org<http://www.waternexussolutions.org> ________________________________ For further links and information, please visit www.iucn.org/water<http://www.iucn.org/water> or the project's website www.waternexussolutions.org<http://www.waternexussolutions.org> . The Nexus Dialogue brochure is also attached. Launch of the Nexus Dialogue on Water Infrastructure Solutions 31 January 2013 | News story IUCN and IWA today launch the Nexus Dialogue on Water Infrastructure Solutions, aimed at building partnerships for innovation in water, food, and energy security. Recognition of the closely bound interaction between water, energy and food production and use - the nexus - has led to new demands for water infrastructure and technology solutions. Water, energy and food security all rely on water infrastructure, such as wetlands, watersheds, rivers and floodplains. Projections show that in 2050 global population will have increased to 9 billion people and 70% more food will be needed. Over 70% of global water availability is used for agricultural production. Electricity generated from water, hydropower, provides 20% of the world's electricity and is the main energy source for more than 30 countries. Considering such statistics, the Nexus Dialogue on Water-Energy-Food security is a call to action to those leading transformations in water infrastructure planning, financing and operation. It provides a forum for sharing experiences, lessons, tools and guidelines on how portfolios of water infrastructure and technologies can address the challenges of the nexus. Innovative professionals in farming, energy-production, natural resource management, and engineering have the experience and hold practical knowledge to address that challenge. Working across sectors, the Nexus Dialogue will provide a unique opportunity to share these experiences and solutions emerging around the world. You can join the Nexus Dialogue and submit contributions through the new website: please visit www.waternexussolutions.org<http://www.waternexussolutions.org>. By joining us on social media through Twitter @WaterNexus and Facebook, you will stay updated on new submissions, news items, videos, solutions and activities taking place.
