On 8 July from 16.00 to 17.00 CET), the World Resources Institute (WRI) is hosting a webinar on Establishing a Baseline Water Risk Assessment Model in Ethiopia.
The webinar will detail the methods and findings documented in a new WRI publication, Balancing Water Demands and Increasing Climate Resilience: Establishing a Baseline Water Risk Assessment Model in Ethiopia. The report’s authors will present the data and methods used, findings from the modeling effort, applications and limitations.
