VALUING WATER INITIATIVE

VWI is an open initiative, looking for synergy with other initiatives, many of which may not explicitly address water. We aim to move away from fiddling at the margins of the status quo and get to the systemic core of big water challenges. Addressing that core is essential - without it, systemic change is unlikely to happen, and nothing less than systemic change is required to get us back on track. Not only for SDG6 but for all other water-related SDGs as well. This initiative is open to change and will adapt and grow through experience and learnings... The Valuing Water Initiative (VWI) calls for water to be prioritised in decision making through the application of the UN Valuing Water Principles in different water value chains and sectors. We work collaboratively with stakeholders, both inside and outside the water sector, to encourage governments, industries and civil society to bring about the systemic change required to understand, value and manage water to ensure we can live in..
