Stormwater network management is a crucial issue for the preservation of the global natural environment as well as the safety of life and properties in urban areas. Using smart systems and advances in information and communications technology it is possible to upgrade the conventional management approaches into innovative and efficient systems. This webinar will provide an overview on technical (and non-technical) motivations and barriers to using digital technologies in sewer systems. Moreover, social challenges will be presented on multiple levels: individual, organisational and institutional.

How can NAP processes help countries meet obligations under different global agendas? On March 4, the NAP Global Network Secretariat will host a webinar focused on the role NAP processes can play in helping align countries’ efforts under the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, the Paris Agreement and the Sendai Framework.

This webinar aimed at NAP teams, DRR practitioners and other stakeholders interested in getting started on aligning different policy processes by identifying enabling factors and learn about first efforts and good practices from country examples. In particular, it will:

• Provide background on the rationale for alignment and where the different global agendas connect

• Present national approaches to coherence in climate change adaptation and disaster risk management

• Explore how the NAP process can be aligned with obligations countries have under other agendas 

• The role of development cooperation in supporting coherence.
