As part of the WES project workplan for the second year (2020-2021) related to the Regional Activities on Non-Conventional water Resources (NCWR) focusing on water harvesting including through retention & aquifer recharge with storm water, a Peer-to-Peer (P2P) exchange addressing the same topic (RW-4-P2P) was implemented, combined with a regional on-line training on the same subject (RW-4-Reg).

The objectives of the Peer-to-Peer activity, which involves direct exchange of experience between and among peers from relevant institutions in the beneficiary countries, were to strengthen the capacities of the appointed Peers from the WES Partner Countries, allow participation of peers to National trainings of other countries as resource persons or observers, to share knowledge among peers on challenges related to the implementation of NWRM in their countries, to share expertise on NWRM applicable in the South Mediterranean countries, to boost south-to-south (and north-to-south) cooperation, and to build lasting relations and exchanges among the peers, as opposed to one time ad-hoc exchange.

The “Water and Environment Support” (WES) project is a regional project aiming to the implementation of an integrated approach to pollution reduction and prevention. It is also designed to contribute to a more efficient management of scarce water resources in the Southern Neighbourhood Region.
