Programs

AGWA works primarily across two complementary and synergistic workstreams: driving the global and national water-climate policy agenda to support and enable more water-wise decisions, actions, and investments; and, developing technical approaches to resilient water management.

We strive to disseminate knowledge and advocate on critical policy and technical aspects of water and climate. To date, our policy work has defined a core set of issues, targeted relevant processes and policy frameworks, identified motivated and supportive policy and decision making actors, and developed approaches for communicating these issues to make changes in behavior. Our technical programs have emphasized connecting thought leaders to develop a coherent set of guiding elements, processes, and methodologies for implementing robust and flexible long-term water management. Our technical credibility and interaction across the full water and climate communities have led us to serve as the interface between practitioners and global / national policymakers, translating needs, trends, language, and actions between both groups.
