Communities of Practice (CoPs) are social learning vehicles that allow us to move towards adaptative and integrated water resources management. Together with its 3000+ partners, GWP is co-convening 20+ CoPs on a variety of topics including, transboundary management, river restauration, nature-based solutions, drought management, and more.
The Global Water Leadership in a Changing Climate (GWL) is a global initiative to support emerging leadership for improved water, sanitation and hygiene services, and climate resilience.
It’s been called the African COP, the Adaptation COP, the Implementation COP, the Solutions COP, and the Development COP. Clearly, there is a lot riding on the 27th Conference of the Parties (COP27) to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) this 6–18 November. It marks the 30th anniversary of the Convention’s adoption, but also a new and difficult phase in global climate action.
The hybrid dialogue on Hydro-Diplomacy: pathways to Enhance Water Cooperation was held on 11 January 2024 in line with the “Signpost to Bali- Voices of the Unheard ” webinar series.
The 2022 GWP annual Network Meeting of Partners will take place on 25 May, building on last year’s theme of “Leading Change and Innovation through our Partners”.
“I want to invite all of you today to focus on partnerships because of the importance of tackling the biggest challenge with water – whether it’s scarcity, floods, climate patterns – is working together,” says GWP Executive Secretary Darío Soto-Abril in his message for World Water Day from Dakar, Senegal, where he is participating in the 9th World Water Forum.
