UNIDO, DNV GL partner for water management projects

THE United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) and DNV GL - Business Assurance will develop and implement joint projects in the field of water footprint measurement and promote water management best practices, with emphasis on Africa. They will also help build the capacity of the local private sector in the field of certification, label creation, evaluation, training and coaching in food safety and security, as well as in responsible supply chain and quality management.

A memorandum of understanding on this was signed in Vienna, Austria, in December by Li Yong, the director general of UNIDO, and Luca Crisciotti, CEO of DNV GL.
