Water Law Commission
The Water Law Commission was created by the University Superior Council (CSU) with the objective of presenting pronouncements regarding water management, in addition to establishing a link with government authorities in charge of water resources. The Commission is made up of representatives from five university faculties, as well as representatives from several universities. The Commission's objective is to design and present proposals to the University Superior Council regarding water management. In addition, the Commission also organizes initiatives to promote citizen participation in water resources management.
