Unraveling the Water Crisis in Venezuela
註釋A conference, including a plenary session and a series of roundtables, was held at the Center for Strategic and Institutional Studies (CSIS) in Washington, D.C. on October 3-4. This conference examined the magnitude of the water crisis in Venezuela. Plan País--an initiative of the Venezuelan National Assembly which completed a diagnostic of the water crisis as part of its action plan for reconstruction--along with U.S., Venezuelan, and other international experts, discussed strategies for reconstruction of the physical water supply system and rebuilding of its management institutions at the national level. Experts also discussed the roles of public-private partnerships, the United States, other bilateral donors, and international finance in the rebuilding efforts. These discussions resulted in increased awareness of the challenges, lessons, and opportunities for Venezuela and the international community in both the mid- and long-term time frames in mitigating one of the country's most urgent humanitarian needs. This brief details the conclusions and recommendations discussed at this conference.
