Cyprus Water Infrastructure Conference
NCF in Cyprus: Water and Energy Sustainability Conference encourages bi-communal co-operation
NCF Research Officer Freddie Holloway will be representing the Next Century Foundation in Cyprus
next week at a bi-communal conference co-organized in partnership with the Cyprus Peace and
Dialogue Center and the Glafkos Clerides Institute.
Professor Frithjof Kuepper, Chair in Marine Biodiversity at the University of Aberdeen and lead
organizer of the conference, states, ‘Finding shared solutions to Cyprus’s water scarcity issues is
eminently possible – we hope to build on the precedent of Nicosia’s bi-communal wastewater
treatment infrastructure to increase island-wide access to facilities such as desalination, as well as a
joined-up approach to waste management, recycling, and energy issues.’
The event will feature panel discussions on the practicalities and political implications of enhancing co-operation on developing water infrastructure in Cyprus, concluded by an open, round-table discussion.
It will be a hybrid event, taking place in person, at the Ledra Palace Hotel, Nicosia, and online.
The in-person event is open to all – to register, RSVP by email to 03fholloway@gmail.com,
