SUMMARY:Third meeting of the global network of basins working on climate ch
 ange
DESCRIPTION:The global agreements adopted in 2015\, notably the Paris Agree
 ment and the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction as well as the 2
 030 Sustainable Development Agenda\, highlight the importance of and links
  between climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction\, water man
 agement and transboundary cooperation. As the high number of signatures of
  the Paris Pact for Adaptation to Climate Change in the basins of rivers\,
  lakes and groundwaters has shown\, more and more basins worldwide are alr
 eady or are planning to adapt their water management to climate change. To
  support them in their efforts\, the global network of basins working on c
 limate change adaptation was created already in 2013 by the UNECE Conventi
 on on the Protection and Use of Transboundary Watercourses and Internation
 al Lakes (Water Convention) and the International Network of Basin Organiz
 ations (INBO). It aims to offer a platform for comparing methodologies and
  approaches\, fostering exchange of experience and promoting a shared visi
 on between the participating basins.\n\nThe third meeting on 6-7 April 201
 6 will have the following objectives:\n\n	review the progress and the less
 ons learned by the basins since the last meeting of the global network in 
 February 2014\;\n	discuss common challenges such as financing of adaptatio
 n measures\;\n	discuss how to further facilitate a regular exchange of exp
 erience between the participating basins and other similar initiatives\;\n
 	review how the Paris Agreement and Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Red
 uction can support basin-wide adaptation.\n\nClick here for provisional ag
