and

and public
water managers will present examples of successful progressive

Friday 19 September, 18:00-21:00
Venue: Moriskan
The
fifth edition of World Water Forum will be held in Istanbul in March
2009. This forum is illegitimate and it is organized by multinational
water companies. Turkish State wants to use these meetings as a
propaganda of building new big dams. It will be also a step for water
privitizations. We will discuss the global campaign against this
illegitimate forum and shape the alternatives.
