IberoIbero--American Water Program (I/III)American Water Program (I/III)

Lines of action for the achievement of the MDGs:

• Capacity building on the basis of IWRM at basin level throughout Latin America bydeveloping a Training Program at political, technical and managerial levels.

• Technical transfer by the establishment of a Research and Testing Centre for non conventional water treatment technologies in Uruguay, which will cover the proposals of the whole Region.

• Institutional strengthening of local, regional and national Authorities, in order to facilitate better planning and governance of water.

• Support the Ibero-American Conference of Water General Directors (CODIA) and the duties of its Technical Permanent Secretariat (STP).

• More than 1000 million people lack acces to safe drinking water in the world.

• 2600 million people lack adequate sanitation.

• In Ibero-America: – 80 million people have no access to safe drinking water. – 100 million people lack adequate sanitation.

• Millennium Development Goals (MDGs): halve, by 2015, theproportion of the population without sustainable access to safedrinking water and basic sanitation.

BackgroundBackground

Research, Testing and Training Centre for non Research, Testing and Training Centre for non conventional technologies of water purificationconventional technologies of water purification

• Until mid eighties, prevailed projects of infrastructures of thechnologies thatnot always concerned local reality, necessities and availabilities.

• From mid eighties, the model of communal management is adopted. It´sbasic principles are: participation, control in decision making, property ofsystems, cost recovery, mantainance and conservation.

• Communal management is the current model of intervention on water andsanitation in rural and peripheric sectors in developing countries.

• The Research, testing and training Centre for non conventional technoloigiesof water purification expects to make communal management proposals.

ApproachApproach

Research, Testing and Training Centre for non Research, Testing and Training Centre for non conventional technologies of water purificationconventional technologies of water purification

• A community approach: the need to develop appropriate technologiesadapted to socio-economic conditions.

• Technical transfer: by previous testing of non-conventional wastewater treatment systems in this Centre.
