Theme: Knowledge to Action

Managing and governing water futures – GWF research encompasses direct governance and management research as well as tools and models to support innovative water governance and management. Day 1 will focus on how GWF knowledge is/can be used towards changing approaches that better respond to climate change and the Sustainable Development Goals.

Water-related risk reduction – GWF is actively generating knowledge, models, and tools, to reduce risks faced by ecosystems, various economic sectors, and individuals and communities. Risk reduction is a clear and critical knowledge to action pathway within GWF.

Harnessing data and knowledge to improve water practice – GWF has invested in models, tools, apps, sensors, and scenarios. How are these being deployed to improve water practice and what other opportunities exist (e.g., artificial intelligence).

High-Level Meeting Structure

Plenary sessions will include international perspectives and partners speaking to the theme of the day

Scientific sessions will be lightning talks grouped according to the GWF science themes and geared towards GWF YP research. However, these will not be straight research presentations. An abstract template will require potential presenters to clearly align research progress and outcomes (knowledge) with how it is or will be applied (action).

High-level panel sessions will continue the theme of the day from the plenary sessions and provide opportunities to focus on specific elements within the theme.

Climate change, modelling, and Indigenous Knowledge and perspectives will be cross cutting themes.
