GWP is announcing an important change in how we answer the question, “How many GWP Partners are there?” The new answer is: “2800+ registered partners – but the real number is significantly higher than that.”
The Global Water Partnership (GWP) expresses deep concern over the increasing frequency and intensity of extreme weather events worldwide, exacerbated by climate change and inadequate water management systems.
Through a high-impact engagement, GWP advanced many of its strategic objectives at the World Water Week 2024, co-convening events and collaborating with global leaders and partners, both longstanding and new, under the theme ‘Bridging Borders: Water for a Peaceful and Sustainable Future’. With record participation in Stockholm and online, GWP emphasised water’s critical role in peacebuilding and sustainability, reaffirming its commitment to actionable, cross-border water solutions.
Keen to get an overview of GWP’s work and impact? Look no further. Our 2023 annual report presents snapshots of a year of inspiring results, and includes stories that illustrate how our work advances global and national water security objectives and partnerships.
Last week, GWP – the only intergovernmental organisation solely focused on water – participated in a wide range of high-level and influential dialogues at the 10th World Water Forum, the world’s largest multi-stakeholder water conference, held once every three years.
If you are concerned about adapting to climate change – as you should be – then water is your principal worry. Suddenly there seems to be too much, or too little, or sometimes both, at different times. And the pattern is just too unpredictable. Which is just one of the reasons we need to start using AI.
As we approach the 10th World Water Forum in Bali, Indonesia, themed “Water for Shared Prosperity”, it is an opportune time to take note of the current state of water management in the world. How are we doing in managing our water resources, and what is the outlook for the future of water management? Will the world be able to achieve water resources management in a way that will continue to enable our society to grow?
