Our secretariat GETF’s new Impact Report celebrates a decade of uplifting communities through partnership. Since 2006, GWC’s multi-sector partners have improved WASH service delivery for over 2MM people in 39 countries. See more of our impact in action at GETF.org
Since 2006, we have positively impacted more than 2 million people across Africa, the Americas and Asia with clean water access. Our actionable insight and innovative programs provide critical sector tools, data and best practices to reach millions more.
With our multi-sector partners, we engage for action – catalyzing financial resources and driving innovative programming for sustainable, local solutions.
Clean water is essential for thriving communities, healthy ecosystems and a sustainable planet. Yet lack of water access, availability and quality affect billions of people and is worsening due to population growth, urbanization, increasing consumption and climate change.
WASH, gender equity and climate change are intertwined, and water resource management must be addressed holistically at the basin level.
Climate change impacts such as floods, droughts and rising sea levels pose serious consequences for vulnerable communities – especially women and girls.
Alleviating gender inequalities to water and sanitation access is critical to achieving SDG 6. The Covid-19 pandemic has deepened gender inequalities in health, education and employment which are directly connected to WASH services.

Senior-level representatives from the U.S. State Department, Cargill, The Coca-Cola Company, Starbucks, Nestle and more will share their insights.
The session will showcase successful examples of the private sector, governments, and civil society coming together to meaningfully mitigate and adapt to the impacts of water insecurity and climate change, build more resilient communities, and set course for a healthier, more sustainable planet. Outcomes will highlight current challenges and best practices for achieving such impact.
