The 2003 Stockholm Water Symposium theme is “Drainage Basin Security: Balancing Production, Trade and Water Use.” Plenary sessions will include experts focusing on this theme from a variety of perspectives, and a high-level panel debate will address the role of agricultural subsidies that constrain the trade exchange of food products between the North and the South. The Symposium will also be a key forum for follow-up discussion from the WSSD in Johannesburg and the 3rd World Water Forum held in March 2003 in Kyoto, Japan.
