Welcome at the SWRIS
Welcome at the SWRIS
The Suriname Water Resources Information System (SWRIS) is a web-based scientific framework with water-related information on Suriname. It is open to the general public. The main goal is to promote and foster human resources development (knowledge and techniques) on integrated water resources management (IWRM) in Suriname focused on sustainable use of water resources and as such promote the conservation of aquatic resources in Suriname.
With the SWRIS we want to share water resources information in Suriname, increase the awareness of fresh water resources systems, and seek to bring transparency of public data and information. The ultimate objective is to address equity and sustainability issues in the water sector in Suriname.
We would like to involve more partners to expand the knowledge base and the reach in the water sector. If you are working in the water sector and would like to join us, please contact us.
The SWRIS was created by the Anton de Kom University of Suriname with the support of government authorities and is a voluntary effort on the part of all these partners.
