During Module 1 you had 4 lessons :
1.1. Safeguard Water
1.2. Irrigation Aspects
1.3. Water Requirement
1.4. Promote & Initiate
And you have surely had a first glance to the toolbox « Water Requirement Tool »
Discussion :
What was the most relevant lesson/topic/aspect/challenge.. for you (to your country, your region, etc.)?
Explain why..

Speaking on Lebanon, one of the main problems we are facing is disposing sewage water in the sea and agricultural and industrial waste in the rivers. We have regulations and rules for stopping this in our ministries but there is no enforcements. Waste water treatment plants are barely operating due to the electricity crisis. We are considered one of the richest arab countries in terms of water resources but we are not managing them properly.
Many thanks for your contribution,
Yes, wastewater management is very complex topic, even it seems to some people quite simple technically speaking.
Unfortunately, in many countries and cases, not much importance is given to wastewater collection, treatment and discharge because of many reasons : institutional, financial, etc. And the situation is getting with INDUSTRIAL wastewater discharge (lack of regulations and/or enforcement, ..)
for your case, are there any actions planed or applied to solve the problem, what is the strategy, etc.
I will try to find some useful references or experiences to share with you
all the best
Mostafa
