Global Water Forum

The Global Water Forum was established in 2010 as an initiative of the UNESCO Chair in Water Economics and Transboundary Water Governance at the Australian National University. In 2017, we expanded to partner with the University of Oxford. The GWF is an online resource presenting evidence-based, accessible, and freely available articles concerning freshwater governance. The site acts as a hub for internally and externally produced education resources, and as a forum for discussion regarding water issues. The central objective of the site is to build the capacity of practitioners, policy-makers, academics, and students working in the water sector, as well as the general public, in order to understand and better respond to complex freshwater problems.
