Regional Water Demand Initiative - WaDImena


Regional Water Demand Initiative - WaDImena: International Development Research Centre

            The Regional Water Demand Initiative for the Middle East and North Africa (WaDImena) is a five-year project that promotes water demand management (WDM) approaches in the increasingly water-scarce countries of the Middle East and North Africa region.

By covering knowledge gaps, developing capacities and sharing regional experiences on WDM tools, techniques and strategies, WaDImena aims to influence policy so that severe water scarcities do not hamper development and increase poverty.
