The IUCN Water Knowledge Platform

Protecting and conserving our water resources

Water and Wetlands Team

Providing equitable access to clean water for all

We develop sustainable solutions for preserving vital water resources, committed to evidence-based and adaptive change in water resource management.

We bring together our extensive network of IUCN Members, experts, government and private sector partners to develop sustainable solutions to preserve our water resources.

Our initiatives and projects cover multiple areas such as integrated water resource management, environmental flows, water economics, watershed ecosystems, as well as river bank rehabilitation, and the effects of climate change on global water supply and distribution.
