We foster training and capacity development, empower community-based networks, weave traditional knowledge, and inspire innovation to co-create sustainable water solutions and ensure equitable access to water for all. The Global Water Academy empowers policy and decision-makers, government officials, industry, and the communities most affected by water insecurity, with the knowledge, expertise, and capacity to ameliorate the water crisis. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Our Vision <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The objective of the Global Water Academy is to deliver a global virtual education training and capacity building platform on water. The Academy will build on our focus on social justice, diversity, and the public good to create a training program that is uniquely focused on disadvantaged communities. We provide training and develop skills on global water issues, generate risk assessments of water insecurity, and build strategies for resilience, mitigation, and adaptation measures in response to global environmental degradation, including climate change, to ultimately safeguard our water resources. We incorporate Indigenous perspectives and sustainable development principles into the Global Water Academy. We weave traditional Indigenous knowledge within our program to further our understanding of practices in caring for water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
