Dr. Kovács Represents Hungary’s Water Sector at the Seventh Meeting of the Parties to the Protocol on Water and Health
To strengthen the Hungarian–Vietnamese cooperation in the water industry, the Hungarian Water Partnership participated in the 2025 Vietnam Water Week, organized in Hanoi by our strategic partner, the Vietnam Water Supply and Sewerage Association. Between August 20–22, the international forum was attended on behalf of our cluster by Co-President Róbert Forintos and Secretary General Bálint Horváth.
Our industrial cluster had the distinguished opportunity to present itself at the 95th Meeting of the Strategic and Technical Council (STC) of the African Water and Sanitation Association (AfWASA), held in Lilongwe, the capital of Malawi, from 21 to 24 July 2025. HWP was represented by its President, Dr. Károly Kovács, who serves as the sole non-African member of this committee within the pan-African organization. A detailed report is available here.
At the invitation of the head of the Romanian Water Association (ARA), the president of the Hungarian Water Partnership took part in the EXPOAPA 2025 water industry exhibition in Bucharest, held from June 23–25.
One of the highlights of the event was a high‑level regional roundtable discussing the European Commission’s Water Resilience Strategy, published in June. Dr. Károly Kovács joined the panel as a speaker, while the session was chaired by Jessika Roswall, the Commissioner for Environment, Water Management and a Competitive Circular Economy.
We are a registered industrial cluster and bring together partners who respect water. Talk to us if you work in water purification, wastewater treatment or water management. Our Hungarian-owned member companies offer innovative, sustainable, and bankable solutions to water challenges. Among our ranks are an applied research institute and a university, both open to R&D collaboration. We are proud to represent our members internationally and glad to serve as your first point of contact with them.
