Alliance for Water Stewardship
Water Stewardship Communities of Practice (CoP) allow organisations to collaborate with other business leaders, NGOs and regional experts to get a deeper understanding of the water challenges faced by their sector and beyond, and to set the agenda for water stewardship.
These Communities of Practice (formerly AWS Working Groups) are valuable spaces for peers to share their experiences and ask questions. They also serve as a platform for experts to present their research and findings. Facilitated by AWS, the Water Stewardship Communities of Practice are open to our members, partner organisations, their members, and other relevant stakeholders. Our goal is to foster broad, inclusive dialogue across the diverse landscape of water stewardship.
AWS, in partnership with Biodiversify, facilitates a Community of Practice on Biodiversity. These meetings are a space to develop our collective understanding of the topic, as well as to explore the synergies between biodiversity and water stewardship.
The Cross-sector Community of Practice creates a space for all stakeholders to engage on water stewardship, regardless of their sector. These meetings explore water stewardship community topics and initiatives, and provides updates on the AWS Standard System and broader issues.
Sector-specific Communities of Practice provide an opportunity for stakeholders to take a deep dive into topics related to their specific industries and address challenges unique to their organisations. AWS facilitates the following sector-specific Communities of Practice:
Biodiversity
Cross-sector
Agricultural value chains
Pharmaceuticals, chemicals & personal care
Textiles & apparel
