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.

GWP Network Meeting 2018

GWP is inviting its Partners to the Annual Network Meeting – for the first time in a ‘Follow-the-Sun’ format. Watch it LIVE on our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/globalwaterpartnership/

he meeting will give Partners an opportunity to engage directly with other GWP Partners and with their GWP regional and global peers. They will be able to contribute to the new GWP strategy that is being developed, as well as other agenda items for which we need your input (see below).

WHAT IS ‘FOLLOW THE SUN’? It is a format that allows GWP to consult with Partners in each region over a 24-hour period. Partners participate in a 2-hour session in each region (in their language and time zone), and then every region hands over their input to another region. The Network Meeting culminates in a summary and forward-looking global session at the end (recorded for those who cannot participate).

WHO: GWP Partners

DATES: 27-28 September 2018

GUIDING QUESTIONS:

Each regional session will discuss questions relevant to Partners in that particular region. However, to gather feedback on some key issues, below are two guiding questions to be discussed.

The new GWP strategy

GWP is developing a new strategy for 2020 and beyond. It will need to be strategic in outlook as well as practical in implementation.

What must GWP’s new strategy include to be relevant to your Partner institution?

GWP network engagement

GWP’s strength depends on the degree of engagement of its Partners.

How can we increase the engagement of GWP Partners with GWP entities and with other Partners? Consider this question in the context of your institution’s experiences, capacities, and resources.

HOW TO CONNECT TO THE NETWORK MEETING: There will be different options to join the Network Meeting, either by face-to-face sessions in selected countries (contact your GWP Regional Country Water Partnership if you are interested), or by joining online (check GWP’s website www.gwp.org where the link to the livestream will be highlighted closer to the date). You can also email input to the guiding questions above by 21 September. (See email address below.)

Either way, Partners will be able to connect and contribute to the GWP Network!
