A workshop on water and adaptation to climate change in transboundary basins will be held on 10-11 May 2010 in Geneva under the UNECE Convention on the Protection and Use of Transboundary Watercourses and International Lakes (Water Convention), back-to-back with the third meeting of the Task Force on Water and Climate (12 May).

The workshop aims to promote exchange of experience with adaptation of water management to climate change, especially in transboundary basins, to show how cooperation can be established in every step of developing an adaptation strategy, to support countries developing such strategies and pilot projects and to promote implementation of the Guidance on Water and Adaptation to Climate Change.
