About

GWP’s VISION is a water secure world. Our MISSION is to advance governance and management of water resources for sustainable and equitable development.

OUR UNIQUE VALUE: GWP mobilises action on the global water crisis through a unique combination of social capital, shared values, credibility within the global water community, bottom-up orientation, and expertise. A network of networks, we ensure the ‘voices of water’ can inﬂuence local, national, regional, and global development priorities. We are committed to our role as a neutral convener and respected for our focus on inclusiveness and sustainability.

Learn

GWP creates and communicates information about integrated water resources management which contributes to improved water governance and, ultimately, water security.

Together with our Partners, we provide knowledge resources and capacity building activities for solving water problems.

Partner

Institutional Partners are the basis of GWP's multi-stakeholder partnership. A strong, diverse partnership can bring about the changes needed to achieve a water secure world. In this section, learn about the benefits of being a Partner and meet a few who already are. We invite like-minded organisations to join us!

GWP Regions

This is where you can find links to the websites of our Regional Water Partnerships (RWPs). RWPs are closest to the countries where we work. They share knowledge and learning across national boundaries and are expected to have an open, inclusive, and gender-sensitive policies for bringing together as wide a group of stakeholders as possible to solve water problems.

Water Sector Market 2017

UNESCO-IHE students and alumni play a key role in providing linkages between the Dutch water sector and international partners. The Water Sector Market provides opportunity for the private and public water sector to get acquainted and build relations. GWP will take part in this event.

Since 2014, UNESCO-IHE and GWP have been collaborating to strengthen knowledge dissemination and practical application of Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM). On 13 April GWP will hold an interactive lunch seminar at UNESCO-IHE, presenting its programmes and projects in 13 regions and 85 countries.

The seminar will address the following themes and questions. How can IWRM teaching be embedded in other water related disciplines (e.g. engineering)? What is GWP’s approach in Youth and Gender in managing water? A focus on water and climate: how are we working to increase climate resilience?

Later the same day, GWP participates in the the Water Sector Market. Full details about that are available here.
