Water Conservation, Reuse, And Recycling: Committee on U.S-Iranian Workshop on Water Conservation, Reuse, and Recycling, Office for Central Europe and Eurasia Development, Security, and Cooperation

In December 2002, a group of specialists on water resources from the United States and Iran met in Tunis, Tunisia, for an interacademy workshop on water resources management, conservation, and recycling. This was the fourth interacademy workshop on a variety of topics held in 2002, the first year of such workshops. Tunis was selected as the location for the workshop because the Tunisian experience in addressing water conservation issues was of interest to the participants from both the United States and Iran. This report includes the agenda for the workshop, all of the papers that were presented, and the list of site visits.
