THE ZIMBABWE WATER RESOURCES AND INFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENT SUMMIT

oVerVieW

Water is essential for all forms of life; It is the most important resource necessary for human well-being and ecosystem functioning.

Due to increasing demand for water, global climate and environmental change; water as a resource is under considerable pressure.

And despite the relevance of water to social and economic survival, the water sector is often fragmented. There is an overbearing

need for policy-makers to adopt an integrated and holistic view of water in relation to issues such as population growth, planning and

development, land use, valuation and climate change.

The overall objective of this summit is to facilitate a comprehensive platform that brings together key stakeholders in the Zimbabwe

water resources sector to discuss framework for promoting capital investment, human capital, integrated development and manage-

ment of water resources in Zimbabwe.

The Zimbabwe Water Resource Investment Summit (ZWRIF) brings together policy-makers, regulators, water service providers, utility

asset managers, non-governmental organisations, water resource managers, development partners, financiers and insitutional inves-

tors to explore mechanisms for aiding the delivery of integrated solutions including, integrated catchment management, water cycle

planning, partnership working, and the consideration of ecosystem services. The summit will aid the preparation of a report that will

help identify priorities and mechanisms for more effective water resource integration.

WHY noW?

Zimbabwe is dued for a sector-wide comprehensive policy reform framework; and this summit is designed to explore and identify

what it would take to make significant advances in the future reform of the Zimbabwe water and sanitation sector. The summit partici-

pants will discuss sector governance, leadership development, effective responsibility allocation, integrated capacity building, sector

progress reporting and monitoring framework, aligning government objectives with that of the development partners, and sustain-

able sector financing mechanisms. Focus will be on sectorwide issues, rural & urban water supply and sanitation & hygiene.
