Water Engineering and Management (WEM) master’s student Mr. Fahad Ahmed shares his experience of participating in the 2nd Asia International Water Week (AIWW) hosted by Asia Water Council (AWC) from 14-16 March 2022 at the Labuan Bajo, Indonesia. Fahad writes:
“It was a wonderful experience to participate in 2nd AIWW at Labuan Bajo, Indonesia. It helped me gain experience on the international stage by participating in events hosted by Asia Water Council (AWC). Also, I had an opportunity to showcase projects and activities conducted by Water Engineering and Management (WEM), Asian Institute of Technology (AIT) as an Asia Water Council Young Professional (AWCYP@AIT) in AWCYP Special Session and Expo.”
The AIWW is a triennial water gathering for multi-stakeholders to seek tangible implementation for resolving Asian water problems. It is organized by the Asia Water Council in collaboration with the authorities of the host country (Indonesia). Regional water problems that were discussed for three years prior to the AIWW based on the preparatory process will be raised as the primary issues from Asian water community and will be disseminated to the global water community with action plans to solve them and timelines for them by the relevant committee at the AIWW.
WEM congratulates Mr. Fahad for successfully participating in the 2nd Asia International Water Week and wishes him good luck in his future endeavors.
