New Partner: International Private Water Association
The International Private Water Association (IPWA) was formed in 1999 to address the changing dynamics taking place in individual countries around the world within the context of the evolving water/wastewater infrastructure project and service arena. The Association serves as a conduit between the public and private sector players - facilitating effective timely dialogues that highlight the critical need for speed, transparency and cost-effectiveness in the development/operations of global water and wastewater projects, and the practical means for achieving those elements in projects. More importantly, IPWA is uniquely recognized as one of the few independent organizations that address, as a central part of its mission, the evolving role of the private sector as a viable partner to governments and parastatals within the global water/wastewater project and service arena.
