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.

Sponsoring Partners

GWP is a large and multi-layered global network with an intergovernmental organisation at its core, the Global Water Partnership Organisation (GWPO). GWPO is the formal, legal representative for the entire global network.

The Sponsoring Partners are the nation states and international organisations that formed the GWPO (by signing and formally approving, through parliamentary or other similar actions, a Memorandum of Understanding in 2002). The Sponsoring Partners are therefore the ultimate governing body for GWPO. The Sponsoring Partners also appoint the GWP Chair, the members of the GWP Steering Committee, and the GWP Auditor.
