INTRODUCTION
Zambia is endowed with vast water resources in the form of rivers, streams, lakes and
groundwater. It is actually known as the land of rivers, lakes and waterfalls. As we all know,
water plays an important role in improving and meeting the needs of different competing
users such as agriculture, hydropower generation, mining, manufacturing and the
ecosystem biodiversity.
Realizing the importance of water, the Government of the Republic of Zambia undertook
the water reforms which have led to a number of achievements including the Water Supply
and Sanitation (WSS) Act, 1997, the establishment of the WSS regulator - National Water
Supply and Sanitation Council and Eleven Commercial Water Utilities, formulation of the
National Water Policy 2010 and enactment of the Water Resources Management Act, 2011.
Furthermore, economic and financial instruments have been put in place to champion the
planning, development and implementation of the water resources in the country, notable
ones include the Fifth and Sixth National Development Plans (2006 -2015), the Integrated
Water Resources and Management / Water Efficiency Implementation Plan of 2008, and the
Vision 2030. In addition, the water sector has a Water Sector Advisory Group which advices
Government on policy and implementation of water plans in the country. Whereas, the
development of all these initiatives involved many stakeholders, Zambia still faces a critical
challenge of mainstreaming water at the core of development with most of its citizenry
unappreciative of the value and role that water plays in economic development.
Notwithstanding this, public awareness is a continuous process in achieving a paradigm
shift. It was for the above reasons that the “Zambia Water Forum and Exhibition (ZAWAFE)”
was born.
WHAT IS ZAWAFE?
ZAWAFE stands for ZAmbia WAter Forum and Exhibition whose main objective is to bring
together various national and international stakeholders and experts, to discuss and share
best practices on water management and mainstreaming water as a core component of
social and economic development. The Forum hopes to ensure that water management
mechanisms being implemented are translated into relevancy and public benefit for
sustainable social and economic development of the country. Sanitation is a key component
of WAter in the acronym of ZAWAFE in a similar manner to other water related socio- and
economic sectors of the Zambian economy.
OBJECTIVES
The following are the specific objectives:
1. To bring together stakeholders in order to share information and build
networks in the management and use of water through:

Keynote speeches; and
Session presentations covering the water sector and related socio economic sectors of Zambia, including sessions on training and other
topical issues such as water and climate change;
To exhibit and market various instruments and equipment including
publications for assessment, exploration and exploitation of Zambia’s water
resources as they contribute to economic development;
To catalyze the overall management of water in Zambia develop an
information support service for information focusing on national water policy
(2010), Water Resources Management Act (2011), SNDP (2011 -2015), Vision
2030 and the MDGs;
To promote the Water Sector Advisory Group activities and resolutions ; and
To undertake visitations to areas of “good water management practices” during
the Forum and Exhibition for appreciation by interested participants.
ZAWAFE therefore provides a platform for:
(i)
Advancement of happenings in the water sector through sharing of data and
information on best practices in water management (WM) for sustainable social and
economic development;
(ii)
Exhibiting organisational services and products to encourage research, development,
technology transfer and innovation;
(iii)
Professional development and capacity building initiatives through holding of mini
workshops, seminars and training sessions & above all publication of forum
proceedings;
(iv)
Networking at local, national and international levels
(v)
Formation of partnerships and entrepreneurships among institutions, individuals to
build capacity for WM; and
(vi)
Above all it provides a platform for the Water Sector Advisory Group to disseminate
their deliberations to the entire country.
FORUM THEMES
The overall theme for this year’s forum is sustaining and improving the Zambian Water
sector: 50 years after independence”. The Forum and Exhibition will address the whole
water spectrum, and will seek to explore and find implementable solutions to:
(i) biggest challenges to effective water management; water supply & sanitation;
wastewater treatment and water quality management, sustainability - institutional,
environmental, social and financial aspects, and
(ii) how governments in developing countries can mainstream water at the centre of
development

The Forum is open to all, consumers, water users, academicians, sector players, researchers

stakeholders and the general public. Two hundred fifty participants are expected to come to
