Global Water Partnership (GWP)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Global Water Partnership is a network organization working as a partnership among all those involved in water management: government agencies, public institutions, private companies, professional organizations, multilateral development agencies and others committed to the Dublin-Rio principles.

The mission of the Global Water Partnership is to "support countries in the sustainable management of their water resources."

The GWP's objectives are to:

  • Clearly establish the principles of sustainable water resources management,
  • Identify gaps and stimulate partners to meet critical needs within their available human and financial resources,
  • Support action at the local, national, regional or riverbasin level that follows principles of sustainable water resources management,
  • Help match needs to available resources.
