Year Review 2022


2022 was an exciting year for World Water Academy. We started, continued and completed some interesting training programmes around the globe. And we've met a lot of new partners to collaborate with.

The Netherlands

In our homebase The Netherlands we have trained over 3000 water professionals on various water topics like water supply, wastewater treatment, water management, flood control, climate change, urban water and sanitation.

OKP project Bridging the Water in South Africa

In 2022 we completed the OKP Project Bridging the Water in South Africa. Since 2019 over 600 participants were trained in wastewater treatment and drinking water production courses from municipalities throughout South Africa.

In this project we improved the skills and knowledge of water professionals in South Africa and develop an sustainable knowledge-exchange and collaboration. Dutch and South African partners co-created and offered solutions in water education to improve water management, water services and the livelihood of citizens.
