.: The environment
Cities in the Middle East and North Africa region are faced with sharp growth
in urban population levels and decay in their old centres. In this context,
addressing the demand for basic urban services - and notably environmental
services - has become a priority. The seminar will focus on the collection,
sorting and treatment of waste, on energy recovery and on the treatment and
distribution of water.
It will also look at the mayor’s responsibility for the organisation
of services, at the implementation of partnerships with the private sector,
at the financing of these investments and at the services provided to the
inhabitants of spontaneous settlements.
