About this Event
The MENA region remains the most water-stressed in the world, with over 60% of the population facing high water scarcity. As regional tensions intensify, the heavy reliance on centralized desalination infrastructure, which provides most of the potable water in the GCC, presents a significant strategic vulnerability. In an environment where water assets are increasingly viewed as high-stakes security targets, the potential for disruption poses a direct threat to socioeconomic stability and regional prosperity. Strengthening the resilience of these systems is no longer just an environmental goal, but a regional security imperative.
Under the theme of “The MENA Water-Energy Nexus: Innovation, Diversification & Resilience”, this high-level forum convenes senior executives, industry leaders, and strategic partners across sectors, to address the multifaceted challenges of securing a water-positive future amidst shifting geopolitical landscapes. By bridging the gap between technical innovation and security policy, the forum empowers key decision-makers to fortify the region’s lifelines against both traditional and emerging vulnerabilities.
