World Water Forum 2006Author: Peter Young What is the 4th World Water Forum? In October 2003, the Board of Governors of the World Water Council awarded the organization of the 4th World Water Forum to Mexico. The World Water Forum is an initiative of the World Water Council that has the aim of raising the awareness on water issues all over the world. As the main international event on water, it seeks to enable multi-stakeholder participation and dialogue to influence water policy making at a global level, thus assuring better living standards for people all over the world and a more responsible social behavior towards water issues in-line with the pursuit of sustainable development. The World Water Fora are built on the knowledge, experience and input of different types of organizations active in the global water polity. It is a venture founded on the principles of collaboration, partnership and innovation. http://www.worldwaterforum4.org.mx/home/home.asp
