This Special WRRC Water Webinar will include an overview of the Routledge Handbook of Water Diplomacy by one or more Handbook editors, a panel of Handbook authors, and a moderated discussion with participants. The Handbook is a comprehensive guide to understanding and practicing water diplomacy – a framework for building relationships, negotiating shared interests, and managing complex water challenges across physical, political, and societal boundaries. More information about the book, along with the link to download the PDF version, can be found here. The webinar, which will be conducted in English, is co-convened by the Stockholm International Water Institute, the International Centre for Water Cooperation, the UNU Institute for Water, Environment and Health, and the Women in Water Diplomacy Network.
