Last week, the International Water Association's IWA World Water Congress & Exhibition was held in Copenhagen. At this global event, professionals from different backgrounds and companies come together to share their vision for the future of water management: experts in water industry, agriculture and finance, to IT professionals, architects, urban planners and sociologists.
With the worst drought in 500 years in Europe this summer and heavy rainfall shortly after, the need to redesign our water system. We must see water as a precious, vital and scarce resource worldwide. But how do we do that? And how can we bring all the expertise together to find water solutions to all problems, now and in the future?
Wavin attended the conference to both inspire and be inspired by our peers. Here are 3 key conclusions that we took away from the IWA World Water Congress & Exhibition.
Building Healthy Sustainable Environments
At Wavin, we focus on creating positive change in the world and our passion is building healthy, sustainable environments. We believe that every drop counts. That’s why we work with city leaders, engineers, contractors and installers to make cities future-proof and water efficient. At IWA, we gave a presentation to inspire colleagues about smarter water use through blue-green roofs. We look forward to incorporating the lessons learned at the IWA World Water Congress & Exhibition into our future operations.
