GWP Partners in the Caribbean, Latin America, and Southeast Asia took part in a training course on “Groundwater Management in Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM),”

2009-11-03, Governments, UN agencies, international NGOs and civil society advocates gathered at a Water Day in Barcelona today, to urge negotiators to consider the critical role that water plays in climate change adaptation.

The annual Global Water Partnership Consulting Partners meeting took place in Stockholm 15-16 August 2009. With a network of more than 2000 partners spanning over 70 countries, a consultative approach in which Partners recommend actions to be taken is essential to the work of GWP.

Ambassadors from ten Asian Embassies in Stockholm visited the GWPO offices on 18 March at the invitation by the Executive Secretary, to talk about water and GWP’s work in their respective countries and regions.

The latest adaptation text does not hold water: Why the global climate challenge is a global water challenge - organised on Tuesday 8 December at 14 hrs at COP 15 by Global Water Partnership and the Global Public Policy Network on water management.

To a large extent, the global climate crisis is a global water crisis. Yet the latest iteration of the negotiating text on adaptation, the so-called Non-Paper 31, has deleted any clear references to water and its management as a vital consideration for climate change adaptation. This is despite increasing mobilisation by the water community to call for a strong outcome on water from Copenhagen.
