The workshop provided an interactive introduction to issues and challenges in implementing PPP projects and ICT (smart) systems in the water sector. Around 80 participants from 8 ministries and 14 suvakovas (provincial water utilities) attended the workshop. On Day One of the workshop, international expert speakers were invited to share knowledge and lessons learned in successfully delivering PPP projects in the People’s Republic of China, the Republic of Korea, and Armenia. Day Two provided an introduction to smart systems in the water sector. There was a particular focus on remote monitoring of water networks through smart meters and other instruments; subsequently using this information to make smart decisions for improving efficiency and reducing water losses; and ultimately integrating this information into smart city network.

To wrap up the workshop, the participants had a chance to develop and share initial project ideas in a group discussion exercise which was guided by expert resource persons.
