In the following thematic scope of the 2013 World Water Week in Stockholm in is formulated from the perspective of the "what's and who's" ; but in developing the workshops, seminars and other events the "how" questions must be central. Each workshop will also review the progress made in water cooperation.
Perspectives for building partnerships, advance future water cooperation and find solutions to the world's water related challenges will be explored.
- Cooperation between actors in different sectors - optimising benefits to water
- Cooperation between stakeholder groups - recognising water as a common good
- Cooperation across traditional management - from hilltop to ocean
- Cooperation between jurisdictions and levels - from village to transboundary basin
- Cooperation between scientists and users - bridging the science-policy gap
