Water management and stewardship

The purpose of this study has been to collect insights into corporate ‘water stewardship’ based on exchanges of information and views with representatives of private companies, public agencies, NGOs and other organisations involved in corporate water management. The discussion was extended to consider how water stewardship contributes to water resources management and how it connects with efforts by governments to implement ‘integrated’ water resources management (IWRM) under the Sustainable Development Goals.
