Awareness to action: guiding you towards sustainable water management
The Water Footprint Network
provides science-based,
practical solutions and
strategic insights to empower
companies, governments,
small-scale producers and
individuals to transform the
way we use and share fresh
water within earth’s limits.
As the global leader in Water Footprint
Assessment, our standard, data and tools
illuminate the path towards integrated
water resource management and
accelerate progress towards
sustainable development.
Driving action
Bridging sectors and viewpoints, we work
with our valued partners to find solutions
by using a common methodology that
interlinks water related issues and leads
to strategic action.
Building community
Whether your aim is to better value
water through water stewardship,
or to balance the economic, social
and environmental benefits of water
use through resource efficiency, fair
allocation or good governance, the
water footprint can inspire the
innovation needed to reach your goals.
