Dear colleagues and friends,
It is with deep sadness and regret that we announce the death of our great friend and colleague, Executive Director of the Mediterranean Water Institute (IME), Mr Hachmi KENNOU. Mr KENNOU, of Tunisian and French nationality, was one of the most recognized experts in the field of water, both in his country of origin and in the international sphere. A graduate in hydraulic engineering from the National Polytechnic Institute of Toulouse, he began his professional career in 1970. Formerly CEO of the National Sanitation Office in Tunisia, he was appointed Governor of the World Water Council in 2003, thereby coordinating the Transcontinental Mediterranean Process of the World Water Forum.
Today, we pay tribute to him for his extraordinary professional and personal qualities, for his humanism, his honesty and his dedication. We will keep an excellent memory as a person appreciated by all, faithful and enthusiastic.
Rest in Peace.
