As we deal with the challenges facing us with our water supply and as I prepare to give an update on the way forward to restore 24 hour supply of Water, I am presently a part of the St. Kitts representation (NIA is separately represented) at the Caribbean Water and Wastewater Association (CWWA) 31st Annual Conference and Exhibition in the Bahamas. I am joined by Mr. Cromwell Williams, the Water Manager and Engineer of the St.Kitts Water Services Department. The NIA is represented by Ms. Santonnya Mills, Manger at the Nevis Water Department and Mr. Clyde Maynard, Technical Officer at the Nevis Water Department.
At this conference, we will have an opportunity to interact with and engage leading industry experts and professionsals such as engineers, contractors, policy makers and regional and international financial institutions as we build out our water resiliency.
I will also be participating in the Ministerial High Level Forum (HLF) which is the only meeting of Caribbean Water Ministers. At this HLF, Ministers have an opportunity to share experiences and ideas for addressing water issues affecting the region and individual countries in pursuit of the UN’s Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). My participation in this conference is funded by the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB).
Water is Life and Every Drop Counts!
