From February 16 to 20 was held the 22nd International Congress under the topic “Water and sanitation for all: A secure future for Africa.”
Dr. Ing. Silver Mugisha, Managing Director of the National Water and Sewerage Corporation (NWSC), host of the event, said the congress would be an opportunity to assess progress made in access to water and sanitation services on the continent.
This was an opportunity for AgroParisTech, through its “Water for All” chair, to take part in the conference. Mr Faby, Director of the Chair, was able to meet many of AgroParisTech’s partners, former trainers of the ‘Water for All’ Advanced Masters – OpT and, above all, many alumni!
