On World Water Day 22 March 2012, it was announced that a close partner organization of GWP, the International Water Management Institute, wins this year's Stockholm Water Prize “for for their pioneering research that has served to improve agriculture water management, enhance food security, protect environmental health and alleviate poverty in developing countries.”
The jury motivation and the award itself is a strong recognition of the value of IWMI's international collaborative research, and also the value of such research to water managers, water experts and decision makers worldwide. The Global Water Partnership congratulates IWMI on this outstanding award, and we look forward to continuing our work together.
