EMPOWERS Thematic Group

Updated - Tuesday 08 July 2008

The EMPOWERS project has ended but will continue as a thematic group. The EMPOWERS Thematic Group (ETG) is a group of national, regional and international organisations with a shared desire to build on and scale-up the philosophy and approach to local water governance developed by EMPOWERS and similar projects. It does this by providing a platform for like-minded individuals and organisations to meet, share information and experiences, undertake advocacy, and develop shared activities. It is drawn in principle from the existing partners of the EMPOWERS programme, namely: INWRDAM, IRC International Water and Sanitation Centre, Care International, PHG, CEDARE, CEOSS, DRTPC-Cairo University, in addition to the IUCN-WESCANA that joined the ETG just recently.

The EMPOWERS Thematic Group (ETG) will post updates on their activities (promoting EMPOWERS approaches, methodologies and tools) on the EMPOWERS web site and they will continue adding news items on any updates or follow-up activities that are still taking place in the EMPOWERS villages. All the information on the EMPOWERS project itself can be found on www.project.empowers.info.
