Summary:
The theme of the conference is "Partnerships for Sustainable Life in Lake Environments: Making Global Freshwater Mandates Work".
In terms of freshwater resources, the importance of lakes is increasing because lakes are easily accessible water bodies. Something must be done for the conservation and management of the world's lakes. To pursue this aim, not only the successful measures must be studied but also the ones that did not work well. Building and strengthening partnerships among all the stakeholders throughout watersheds will also be needed for that purpose.
Organizers: Shiga Prefectural Government
