AguaJaring, a regional Southeast Asian capacity building network, together with MyCDNet (a Malaysian country chapter of the capacity building network), both within the Cap-Net UNDP family, will be organising a 2-day International Symposium on Capacity Development for the Water Sector. This is in conjunction with the soft launch of the International Symposium that will be held in 2023 in Kuala Lumpur.
