We face a fundamental challenge; our ability to thrive depends upon equitable access to clean water generated by a healthy natural world while our social and economic activities continuously degrade this vital life support system.
Our climate crisis is the ultimate expression of this existential tension. Water – floods, droughts, and enhanced effects of pollution - is at the heart of how most of us experience this stress. The ways in which we live, work, and govern reinforce deeply entrenched silos at every level of society that fragment the very things we need to ensure water security: information and data sources, stakeholders and their interests, and institutional jurisdictions responsible for maintaining this vital life support system.
I believe our water future hinges on people. Our ability to collaborate and in the process effectively harness creativity and innovation across technology, public policy, and partnerships – especially those with the greatest stake in the outcomes – to remove barriers to collective creation of actionable, lasting solutions for clean water for people and the planet.
Water for Tomorrow is using real-world technologies to find new ways to bring together stakeholders and communities to learn, collaborate, and share important information through the Water for Tomorrow initiative.
​
Water for Tomorrow is aimed at removing barriers to collective creation of actionable, innovative solutions for clean water and sanitation around the world.
COMING SOON
Two new updates are in process for Water for Tomorrow's board game. Instructions for shorter play geared toward using the game as a stakeholder engagement activity at workshops, conferences and meetings are in development. Also coming soon are new characters to reflect more stakeholders and two expansion packs; one focused on inequality (since we don't all start with the same resources) and another on climate change and extreme weather scenarios.
MEET THE WATER INTELLIGENCE PLATFORM
The platform is an interactive platform with virtual dialog, powered by natural language processing and machine learning, aimed at helping stakeholders understand and collaboratively find solutions to their specific water resource vulnerabilities within and across geographies..
