Any entity, except individuals, may become a Partner of the Network. These typically include States, national, regional and local Government Institutions, Intergovernmental Organizations, international and national Non-governmental Organizations, Academic Institutions and Research Institutions, Companies, service providers in the public sector, or any such entity which recognizes the principles of integrated water resources management endorsed by the Network and is committed to these principles (as outlined in the application to be a Partner).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u00a0about\u00a0Individuals?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h3><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The GWP Statutes specify that individuals cannot become Partners of GWP. However, individuals are important contributors to the work of the GWP. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The development of the GWP network and partnerships has been built on the efforts of both institutions and individuals. The institutional approach has a greater potential to promote action, access funding and create a sense of community ownership while individuals bring in considerable expertise and social capital. For example, some of the successes achieved to-date in terms of influencing governments to adopt IWRM have been achieved through the work of individuals.\u202f <\/p>\n\n\n\n

GWP thus gives recognition to the important role of individuals in the network, even though such individuals cannot become GWP Partners.\u202f The following provisions therefore govern the way GWP treats such individuals: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
