Aragon: Forum for Global Debates on Water Water is such a scarce
resource, and of such high value, that it merits profound re?ection
on its future management. With this in mind, the idea emerged of
org- ising a unique international summit in Aragon - because of the
issue involved and because it would be the ?rst to which top-level
experts from a variety of sectors and disciplines would be invited
to debate the future of water management. Accordingly, in November
2006, the newly established International Centre of Water and the
Environment (CIAMA-La Alfranca) of the Government of Aragon brought
together leading national and international experts on water
issues, as well as on population, development, economics,
agriculture, energy, health, and techn- ogy, for a workshop
entitled "Water Management Beyond 2020." Various probable scenarios
for the management of water in the medium and long term were
debated. Those who also took part in organising the event included
the Mexico-based Third World Centre for Water Management, headed by
its President Prof. Asit K. Biswas, who is also a Senior Advisor to
CIAMA, and the Sasakawa Peace Foundation of the United States, with
its President Mr. Keiji Iwatake. I wish to thank them, as well as
Dr. Cecilia Tortajada, Scienti?c Director of the CIAMA and
President of the Int- national Water Resources Association, for
their dedication and e?ort in conceiving the event and ensuring its
success.
