Water-Centric Resilience & Adaptation

The last decade has seen a dramatic shift in approaches to address climate change. Water is now widely recognized as a central component of effective adaptation, serving as a means to align policy and implementation. Founded in 2010, the Alliance for Global Water Adaptation (AGWA) is an international members-based NGO focused on supporting experts, decision makers, and institutions within the water community to work together to find solutions for resilient water resources management. Our work spans global and national climate-water policy as well as technical approaches to assessing and addressing risks associated with climate change and other uncertainties.

AGWA’s Knowledge Platform

AGWA maintains an additional website known as the Knowledge Platform, focusing entirely on a new generation of methodologies to assess and address climate risk and other uncertainties in water resources management. The Knowledge Platform is designed to provide resources, support, and capacity building materials around a complementary set of so-called “bottom-up approaches” to technical water management.
