Dear SuSaNa Forum members,
 
For the first time, the AGUASAN Workshop , an annual global learning event of the Swiss water anddevelopment community, took place outside of Switzerland, focusing on WaterManagement in Times of Climate Change: Finding actionable solutions for fragile contexts in the Middle East. With the aim to co-create potential actionablesolutions for water-climate issues highly relevant for the region, 35 water, climate and food practitioners, including SDC staff and key partners from Jordan, Iraq, Lebanon, Türkiye and Switzerland, intensively collaborated in 5 thematic expert groups during the 5-days workshop. Check out the Workshop results for potential collaborations:

3. Water-Energy-Food-Ecosystems(WEFE) nexus
4. Impact of multi-dimensional water scarcity on food security
