The Namibian government reaffirmed its commitment to strengthening global cooperation on water governance.

Deputy Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries, Water and Land Reform, Ruthy Masake, delivered the message on behalf of Minister Inge Zaamwani at the Global Water Partnership Organisation Board meeting.

President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah says Namibia has accepted the responsibility of hosting the headquarters of the Global Water Partnership Organisation, a move aimed at strengthening global coordination and management of water resources.

The offices moved from Sweden to Namibia.

The Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Water and Land Reform (MAFWLR) has embarked on reviving dormant basin management committees to enhance sustainable water resources management through community participation.
