GWP China has served as a neutral platform, facilitating multi-stakeholder dialogue and knowledge exchange at all levels. It actively promotes Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) knowledge, mobilizes resources, and supports the implementation of China’s ‘strictest water resources management system’.
To strengthen IWRM dissemination and leadership, GWP China and its provincial/river basin water partnerships have expanded their outreach. Beyond ongoing activities such as workshops, forums, policy dialogues, and field visits, they have introduced diversified channels—including targeted training, guidance sessions, and digital sharing—to make IWRM principles more accessible and actionable for broader audiences. Knowledge products and capacity-building initiatives are also consistently updated to remain relevant and practical.
The GWP Toolbox, along with key publications and media platforms, has been fully leveraged to amplify impact. By translating essential IWRM publications and toolbox guidance into Chinese, GWP China has systematically introduced globally recognized frameworks and practices. Enhanced collaboration with media partners further extends the reach and influence of these resources, supporting sustained progress toward water security goals through 2026.
