The severe water challenges facing the world today require an unprecedented global response.

Transformation cannot take place on its own in a vacuum. Rather the ideas for solutions to these challenges will be fomented and rigorously debated among the IWA鈥檚 institutions and membership.</p> <p>The International Water Association is an open, yet ordered platform in which both innovators and adopters of new technologies and approaches can generate creative friction. It is a place for diffusion, benchmarking and evidence.</p> <p>Our programmes develop research and projects focused on solutions for water and wastewater management; we organise world-class events that bring the latest science, technology and best practice to the water sector at large; we work to place water on the global political agenda and to influence best practice in regulation and policy making; and we do this via the IWA鈥檚 global membership.</p> <p>For a look across IWA鈥檚 latest activities and achievements, see the<span>聽</span><a
