Dear Friends

It is our great pleasure to announce that the 7^th World Water Forum will be held from April 12 to 17, 2015.

This will be the Forum of implementation, and as such, we will seek to replicate and scale up concrete actions towards solving today’s water challenges around the world.

You will be able to contribute to this Forum by sharing your knowledge with others from all around the globe, touching on every aspect of the world's water issues. This will be your chance to work collaboratively with others to make an impact on pressing water-related challenges.

You will join over 30,000 people at the world’s largest water forum and exhibition for intense debates, informative workshops and high-quality sessions. There will be delegates and stakeholders from universities, research institutions, companies and professional networks, governments and councils, IGOs and NGOs, as well as representation from outside fields such as agriculture, urban planning, energy, etc.

Please be sure to check the 7^th World Water Forum website regularly for the latest information and announcements (www.worldwaterforum7.org/en/).

We look forward to seeing you in Daegu - Gyeongbuk (Republic of Korea) and to working closely with you over the next 22 months to create YOUR World Water Forum.

Sincerely yours,
