Italy’s approach to cooperation to development focuses on the integrated management of water, food and energetic security in order to create sustainability.

A discussion on this topic started in the 2012 6th World Water Forum in Marseille and will continue throughout Rio +20 UN Conference on Sustainable Development with the purpose of facilitating a productive dialogue among international organizations, national governments and scientific institutes.

The participants – members and representatives of international organizations, governments, energy and water management companies – will discuss the key issues of cooperation to development as related to the complexity of the modern communication system. The event will also offer the opportunity for sharing and comparing the Italian and Brazilian experiences and strategies in the development field. HYDROAID RIO
