Asia Water Portal
Connectedness is the defining success factor for the global water sector. Connectedness enables sharing knowledge, commitment, learning, innovation, collaboration, transparency, and accountability. Asia’s water sector has a unique opportunity to leapfrog by embracing digital technology as a key enabler and accelerator for progress. The Water Agency initiated the Asia Water Portal as the digital gateway that connects local and international water professionals and enables them to discover, share, learn and collaborate.
The Asia Water Portal is accessible 24/7, supporting desktop and mobile devices. The platform has a public site as well as a secure member-only community. The Asia Water Portal is supported by various features allowing its members to share information effectively, build connections, coordinate agendas, plan events, access market intelligence, look up projects, consult directories (e.g., who’s who), and other things.
Program Objectives
Asia Water Portal has three main objectives, which are:
- To connect local and international water professionals
- To provide a platform for sharing, learning and collaborating on water sustainability
- To inform its member about opportunities and projects around Asia
Program Locations
- Asia Pacific
