For the first time in over 20 years, the Global Water Partnership Organisation (GWPO) is opening its intergovernmental Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), offering a historic opportunity for new States and Governments to join the formal body behind one of the world’s most influential water networks. 

The GWPO provides the legal framework and operational support for the Global Water Partnership (GWP) – a broad international network dedicated to sustainable water management. GWPO coordinates the network, manages finances, and represents GWP in global forums.

The MoU will open for signature on 2 June in Stockholm, Pretoria, and Geneva. The move follows strong support during a recent extraordinary meeting of GWPO’s Sponsoring Partners, where the United Call for Global Water Investment Leadership was launched.

Endorsed by Sweden, the Netherlands, Hungary, Pakistan, and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), the initiative urges more governments to join and lead on global water investment.
