Fostering cross-sector collaboration means bringing different parts of society together- communities, NGOs, researchers, businesses, and government- so solutions to water problems are shared, practical, and fair.
WaterCAN does this by:
- Working with academia and scientists to improve methods, verify findings, and translate data into insight.
- Engaging business and industry to support responsible practices, funding, and innovation.
- Creating channels with government and regulators to share evidence, improve response systems, and influence planning.
- Hosting forums and joint projects where stakeholders co-design solutions and agree on roles, timelines, and accountability.
The goal: move beyond blame and silos to coordinated action—so water systems become more just, resilient, and sustainable for everyone.
