 I work for the Urban Water Division of the National Civil Engineering Laboratory to the NEC in Portugal, which is a problem-driven applied research organization. So we work a lot with utilities, we have a lot of collaborative projects with the utilities that are a combination of research, consultancy, capacity building. And from these projects there are a lot of results that are relevant for IWA strategic asset management group and the other way around. I used to say that Portugal is a kind of piloting itself. We are a small country, we are a kind of a prototype or a laboratory because we have private, we have mixed, we have BPP, we have water only, we have water and waste water. We have a little bit of everything. And the water sector in Portugal has a major challenge, a change, evolution during the past 20 years. So there is really a lot to learn with our success stories and our failures as well. It's really a pleasure for me to be part of the Strategic Council of IWA because I want to be engaged in defining the strategies for the association. I'm engaged in the association since the IWSA time, so since 1988. I am part of the representatives of the specialist groups, so which is the more scientific side of the association, so to say. But the Strategic Council of Management as such is one of the broadest in terms of the area because we are talking about infrastructure, the urban water infrastructure. So it has to do with the network, it has to do with the treatment plans, it has to do with understanding the levels of service, it has to do with financing. So it's a quite broader in terms of scale. When we talk about urban water services, so water supply, waste water and storm water services, we're talking about services that really depend on very expensive and long-lasting infrastructures assets. And the current practice worldwide is that we are not investing sufficiently in these infrastructures, so they are losing value, they are really degrading. And it's fundamental to change that in order to be sustainable in terms of the services. Everybody takes for granted that opens the tap and the water, safe water gets out. And by no means this is granted, I mean there is a lot of investment. We are talking about really ensuring the sustainability of the services in the long term. So we need to define where to act, when to act, how to act in order to ensure that we are going to have urban water services today, tomorrow, for our children, for our grandchildren. So that's the challenge. We need to maximize the value of our available resources.
