TURNING LATIN AMERICA’S WATER UTILITIES GREEN: LESSONS FROM SPAIN

From June 13 to June 17, 2011 a delegation from the Administración de las Obras Sanitarias del Estado (National Water Supply and Sanitation Company of Uruguay, or OSE) and the LCSUW Unit at the World Bank traveled to Spain to observe how Spanish water and sanitation utilities are responding to climate change. The trip was planned as part of the preparatory stage of a project to build OSE’s capacity to respond to climate change.
