Hello,

25 February 2016

2016 seems to be the year that major water organizations and initiatives are focusing on collaborative implementation. It is encouraging to see impact studies emerging, as reported in the 2030 Water Resources Annual Report for 2015.
The Water Network is no exception. Our main impact focus in 2016 is to support existing project teams to make them up to 60% more efficient by providing them a digital workspace.
The broader benefit to all of us is to share learnings from each and to provide broader access to expertise when needed from the over 135,000 water professionals in our network.
