Amsterdam Agreement River Based Management

Description

Following discussion between the Senegal River Basin Development Authority (OMVS) and Netherlands Water Partnership (NWP) around establishing a long-term collaboration benefiting both the West-African (with a focus on Senegal) and Dutch water sectors; more specifically linking between the networks of OMVS -and indirect the AMBO- and the network of NWP, a Letter of Intent (LoI) was co-developed to cement the mutual interest in growing a relevant international network. The LoI is the first step towards establishing a strong relationship among the sectors and river basin management, strengthening the added value of the Dutch water sector in the Senegal River region, and facilitating the input of valuable content and dialogue during international events. The LoI is signed recognizing that the water sectors in both countries want to manage water resources and water service delivery in a manner that contributes to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals and excellence in their respective water sectors.
