Global Water Center (GWC) has been recognized as an UN-Water Partner, joining a select group of NGOs, professional unions, and academic institutions working to advance universal access to safe water and sanitation.
UN-Water is part of the United Nations and brings partners together to align efforts, share knowledge, and accelerate progress on global water challenges. Fewer than 50 organizations worldwide hold this partner designation.
“We are grateful to be part of this vibrant community working to make safe water accessible to everyone. This recognition reflects the meaningful relationships we’ve built with communities, leaders, and organizations around the world. It’s a privilege to serve alongside so many who share this mission,” said Thomas Johnston, CEO of GWC.
UN-Water Partners are focused on Sustainable Development Goal 6 (SDG 6): Universal access to safe water and sanitation. Achieving SDG 6 is critical for health, education, and economic opportunity, as reliable water services are the foundation for thriving communities.
As an UN-Water Partner, GWC will contribute its expertise, engage in collaborative initiatives, and participate in global efforts to strengthen water access. Since 2021, GWC has trained more than 5,000 water professionals across 157 countries, providing hands-on skills, technical guidance, and ongoing support to help communities maintain sustainable, reliable water systems. This recognition provides a platform for GWC to extend its learning and support across the global water sector.
GWC looks forward to continuing this work alongside all those dedicated to safe water for all, strengthening collaborative partnerships and advancing shared solutions that create lasting impact in communities worldwide.
You are doing a great work, helping the communities and schools at large. Mara basin Conservation forum would love to partner with you in reaching more communities.
Thank you! We’re grateful for your encouraging comment. Congratulations on the great work you’re doing as well. We hope there’s a chance to partner with you in the future.
I have noted that several participants of the designing solar powered schemes are posting their certificates a sign that they are through with the course as such i would like to know when invitations for the next cohort are due and would request for an invite as i missed the opportunity and yet i urgently need it for the commencement of the 2nd phase of my project where solar powered water schemes are a key component. Please respond to my humble request.
