Within this theme, participants explored three interrelated subtopics: Resources Management, with a special focus on water management, multi-actors' cooperation, emphasizing public-private partnerships, and open ranks, delving into collaborative and inclusive governance structures. This carefully curated program aims to provide a nuanced understanding of multi-stakeholder governance, encouraging participants to engage in dynamic discussions and discover innovative solutions to current governance challenges.
