Jaap Arntzen was co-facilitator with Prof. Luwesi (DRC) of the WaterNet short course on Financing Water Infrastructure in SADC. The course was funded by GIZ, and held in Johannesburg (10-13 April 2018). Two participants attended from each SADC country, including Botswana; the workshop aimed to build skills and knowledge in the SADC countries on how to mobilise financial resources for water infrastructure projects and further disseminate these innovative approaches to River Basin Organisations (RBOs).
Follow-ups of the workshop with participants are envisaged to assist preparing financing proposals for water infrastructure in the countries and shared basins.
