ICID, WatSave Awards 2015 – Call
for Nominations
Nominations are invited for the
‘WatSave
Awards
2015’
from
individuals/ team through National
Committees/ Committee latest by 15
June 2015. The WatSave Awards are
given in four categories: (i)
Technology; (ii) Innovative Water
Management; (iii) Young Professional;
and (iv) Farmers.
The idea of routing the nominations
through the NC is to receive only one
nomination per category per country
after an initial scanning of the
nominations for a sequential ordering
based on merit and recommending
only one nomination. ICID member
country can also support one
nomination from a non-member
country, but every country should
present only one candidate per
category.
The award(s) is/are presented to an
individual or a team for the outstanding
contribution to water conservation /
water saving for increasing the
beneficial and/ or efficient use of water
to develop and improve the
sustainable use of the critical
resource.

exchange and share experiences,
problems and possible solutions,
