Dams Commission workplan nears completion

The World Commission on Dams has nearly completed its workplan and selected consultants to lead work on the thematic reviews. Because of difficulties in fundraising the Commission will only study 8 dams in depth, and its thematic reviews will not be as participatory as had been hoped.

See www.dams.org or www.irn.org for more details.

There will be a WCD Forum meeting in Prague in late March and a meeting of European NGOs working on dams in Poland in from 20-26 April. Contact: klub@gaja.most.org.pl.
