IWA Programmes / Digital Water Programme
Towards the Next Generation
of Water Systems
The IWA Digital Water Programme helps facilitate the journey of the water industry towards digital uptake and integration into water services. The programme acts as a gateway for water utilities to access knowledge on the application of digital approaches to improve capacity and performance.
The programme serves water utilities in several ways depending on their digital maturity: as a starting point to initiate the dialogue on digital water; as a mechanism to learn new ideas to build on their own experiences in applying digital solutions; and as a platform to share experiences on their digital transformation.
Mission
The DWP provides a collaborative platform for water utilities to exchange knowledge, develop roadmaps, and access guidance. It supports utilities in their digital transformation towards smarter, more resilient systems that ensure sustainable water management now and in the future.
Vision
The DWP envisions a world where the uptake and integration of digital water shape resilient utilities, enabling them to anticipate challenges, optimise operations, and manage water wisely, sustainably, and equitably for the benefit of people and the environment.
