Water Desalination Symposium Africa 2017
Published on by Isabelle Steiner, Researcher at AquaSPE AG in Business
To most African countries, the real headache is where the funds are going to come from? Are P3’s the way to go…? Is the corporate world willing to be part of such a project….? Are there proper project management tools in place? Are we getting any expert advice from those already using this method of water purification…? Water shortages in Africa have led to water rationing and this has affected homes and industry, causing a negative impact to the economy, not to mention the spread of diseases.
This Symposium will unwarp innovative ways of tackling water shortages and government initiatives across the continent. Major players from government, industry and commerce will meet to discuss the way forward, to find out if Public Private Partnerships are the solution to the water crisis in Africa.
