The initiative is raising public awareness and encouraging cooperation among leaders in government, private sector and civil society on policies, investments and innovations that will increase water security in Asia. APWF encourages ministers of finance, planning, health, disaster management, infrastructure, agriculture, energy, environment, water, and other water-related portfolios to join the initiative to demonstrate how water security can be increased by working jointly across these sectors. Leaders from the private sector and civil society are also invited to join the dialogue with the Ministers.</td></tr></table><br>

The International Year of Sanitation was a memorial success, raising awareness, garnering top political commitments and innovative actions. 2.5 billion people do not, however, have access to improved sanitation. New challenge arises as increased effluent will need to be treated to protect the global water environment, requiring the international community to urgently address waste water treatment.<br>

The panel and participants will discuss the role that regional KnowledgeHubs must play in promoting the most suitable technology for wastewater treatment. One of the recommended next steps adapted at the Follow-up Conference of the IYS in January 2010 was that those involved in development and application of optimal technologies should jointly develop technology matrix and clearinghouse to facilitate selection of locally optimal and tailored technology for sanitation and made them available through, inter alia, web-page. The panel discussion is part of activities of the APWF KnowledgeHubs, which was launched at PUB Singapore's WaterHub during Singapore International Water Week 2008.<br><br>
