part in the 5th World Water Forum, from 16 to 22 March 2009 in Istanbul, Turkey, making it the world's biggest water-related event.</strong></p> <p> </p> <h3><strong>• 5th World Water Forum Top 25 Highlights</strong></h3> <p class="text-align-justify">On the road towards the 5th World Water Forum, the international water community worked together according to a precept of “Bridging Divides for Water.” Those who actively participated in its preparation and in the event, itself, soon realized, however, that there is more that unites us than divides us, above all, our fervor to provide water to those most in need. In Istanbul, we improved our common understanding of many issues by accepting to discuss “other” points of views.</p> <p class="text-align-justify">We planned new ways forward to ensure that, together, progress can continue to be made. In some cases, the bridges that were built may still be fragile, in need of reinforcement, but important connections were established. A few major highlights are described in the webpages hereafter, but let’s not overlook the thousands of individual experiences that contributed to the Forum, each of which add a drop to the river.</p>
