There’s no question that our region has the expertise to solve its water challenges, both in delivering water services and in fostering integrated water resources management. Where we must do better is in knowledge sharing and in developing the capacity to produce results at the local level. For that, we need knowledge networks that connect people to feasible solutions and help them adapt those solutions to their local conditions.

Welcome to the Regional Network of Water Knowledge Hubs!

KnowledgeHubs is the APWF’s network of regional water knowledge hubs. KnowledgeHubs was launched on 26 June 2008 at PUB Singapore's WaterHub (see program and the photo-report) during Singapore International Water Week. Each hub is a center of excellence committed to improving water security in the Asia-Pacific region by promoting knowledge sharing and championing feasible solutions for its priority water topic. Together, the hubs collaborate to generate and share knowledge and develop capacity in more than a dozen water knowledge domains.
