FAO invites all Members to the second installment of the Rome Water Dialogue at FAO headquarters in Rome, Italy, on October 4-5, 2023, building on the success of the first 2022 Dialogue and the outcomes of the UN 2023 Water Conference. The Rome Water Dialogue is a platform for crucial cross-sectoral discussions on water’s vital interlinkages, synergies and solutions relating to soils, land, climate change, biodiversity and agriculture and food systems. FAO is providing this platform for exchange between Members and the Civil Society Organizations in accelerating the SDGs together and to foster the connectivity between FAO’s water actions with key global processes.  

Please join this year’s Rome Water Dialogue that coincides with the "Global Symposium on Soils and Water", to be held on October 2-5, with a joint Plenary Closing Session in the afternoon of October 5.

National delegations can secure their spot at the Rome Water Dialogue by registering through the FAO Members Gateway. A virtual link is available here for those who cannot make it in person. For all details and the full agenda, please browse on the dedicated webpage.
