This webinar will address the issue of drought in the Walloon region (Belgium). This is a recent issue that is impacting the Belgian region and so the Wallonian association of public water operators, Aquawal, and the Union of Towns and Municipalities of Wallonia (Belgium) invite local authorities and water stakeholders to discuss this issue. 

  • What conclusions can we draw from the last few years?
  • What measures have been put in place to combat drought and its effects?
  • What measures have been taken by the operators and Wallonia to secure the water supply in our region?
