IWMI at World Water Week 2023
World Water Week 2023 will bring together diverse participants from across the globe to focus on innovative water management solutions. IWMI is pleased to be a part of this annual forum, where researchers will engage in discussions about water systems and forge new connections with other changemakers.
Taking place in Stockholm and online, the conference theme “Seeds of change: Innovative Solutions for a Water-Wise World” will allow IWMI to expand on our Transformative Futures for Water Security initiative, bridging the gap between science, policy, and action through alliances that drive forward the UN Water Action Agenda.
The world’s water-related challenges demand creative, sustainable, and inclusive solutions. We are excited to share the innovative work we are doing towards achieving water security for all. Keep up to date with World Water Week by following IWMI online or visiting our booth on the conference floor in Stockholm.
