GWP South Asia as the Thematic Node on Water for APAN.

Becoming a GWPSA Partner is open to any entity- except individuals- involved with or having an impact on water issues, related to the sustainable development, management and use of water resources.

The vision of the Global Water Partnership-Caribbean (GWP-C) is for a water secure Caribbean. GWP-C's mission is to support Caribbean countries in the sustainable management of their water resources at the community, national and regional level.

GWPSA's programmes and activities since inception have supported institutions charged with delivering on continental, regional & national water-related priorities by following an Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) approach; which is a coordinated, goal-directed processes for controlling the development and use of river, lake, ocean, wetland, and other water assets.

Home to a quarter of the world’s population, South Asia is endowed with vast water resources with potential for high economic development. However spatial and temporal factors in distribution subject the region to water related disasters such as droughts, floods and storm surges, which are increasingly compounded by climate change and global warming.

GWP was founded in 1996 to foster integrated water resources management (IWRM), defined as a process which promotes the coordinated development and management of water, land and related resources in order to maximise economic and social welfare in an equitable manner without compromising the sustainability of vital ecosystems.
