How KnowledgeHubs Works

Mission And Vision

KnowledgeHubs’ mission is to deliver state-of-the-art, knowledge-based products and services that meet the practical needs of water organizations like utilities, river basin organizations, ministries, and planning agencies. Committed to transparency and continuous quality improvement, KnowledgeHubs aims to improve the water sector’s performance by promoting effective solutions and developing local capacity in organizations around the region.

Operating Structure

Each hub works autonomously and is guided by 10 key operating principles for quality assurance. Candidate organizations can become hubs through a peer-review procedure that considers the relevance of their proposed topic, their expertise, and their leadership and capacity in their knowledge domain. KnowledgeHubs contributes to APWF’s work and oversight is conducted by the APWF Governing Council. While the knowledge hubs work together as needed, each hub is entirely responsible and accountable for its own services and resources.
