Aid & International Development Forum (AIDF) brings together leading experts in water security, including policy makers, researchers, development agencies, NGOs and the private sector, to share ideas on how to develop more effective policies to improve sustainable water management, economic opportunities and water related disaster relief in the Asia Pacific region.
 
Delegates can expect to build long-lasting partnerships and more effective public-private collaborations whilst influencing debate on water security and policy, discovering business and investment opportunities in sustainable water management systems and exchanging ideas on improving water quality and overcoming water-born diseases.
