Research and Ethics Network Embracing Water

The World Commission on the Ethics of Science and Technology (COMEST) took the initiative to set up the Research and Ethical Network Embracing Water (RENEW) in November 1999 to identify and encourage best ethical practices in the field of water management, by bringing together various stakeholders from the public and private sectors.

*Southeast Asia-Pacific RENEW in co-operation with the Australian National University.

*Nordic-Baltic RENEW in co-operation with University of Bergen, Norway and Norwegian Hydrological Council
