Objective and Outcomes:
This Windsor Consultation is
designed to review, analyze and assess the current status of successful
practices in the fields of water management, technology, innovation and to propose
viable recommendations for potential successful projects. Unique to this “results-oriented” gathering is that it encourages
the practical implementation of new models of partnerships, spearheads
rethinking of priority actions and strengthens the effectiveness of existing
institutional frameworks and implementation mechanisms. By definition, this
will require different approaches that draw on new mindsets and resources
encouraging actors to explore a variety of partnerships to enhance a “Society
for All Ages, and the “New Urban Agenda.”
Format:
The format of the Consultation includes plenary sessions and four breakout
groups. The Consultation will raise and discuss certain specific issues in
order to establish the essential building blocks for productive sharing of
experiences and future actions. The Consultation will include:
1. Presentation of the topic and briefing
from the United Nations partners suggested outcomes will be explored;
2. Presentation of local successful projects
and endeavors by participants from both developed and developing
countries in the area of water
management, technology, entreprepreuralship and innovation as well as eduction. Explore partnerships and
cooperation opportunities;
4. Call for actions to support the new innovations
and upscale successful projects. .
Venue:
The Consultation takes place at St. George’s Windsor Castle
The origins of the venue date back to 1384
when it was established as a place where people of influence and responsibility
could come together to explore and develop ideas and possible solutions to the
problems of the day.
Logistics:
Prior to the Windsor Castle Windsor
Background
of ICCC:
The International Council for Caring Communities (ICCC), established in
1993, responds to the challenges and opportunities of a rapidly aging global
population. ICCC stimulates and identifies successful strategies and creative
solutions by encouraging their adaptation and/or replication in both developing
and developed countries.
Mainstreaming ageing
issues, especially within the areas of the built environment and information
and communication technologies (ICT), is the centerpiece of ICCC's global
dialogue. ICCC is a non-profit organization and has United Nations Special
Consultative status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council
(ECOSOC). It serves not only as a leader and catalyst but also as a bridge
joining universities, government agencies, the private sector, NGOs as well as
United Nations agencies to promote new ways of viewing an integrated Society for all Generations.
.
Since its inception, one of ICCC’s unique goals has
been to highlight the contributions that private enterprises and individuals
have made to the betterment of society. Through global dialogues, technical
support and international student design competitions, ICCC promotes the
mainstreaming of ageing issues through “out of the box” gatherings of
non-traditional change agents and experts.
