Gender and Water Alliance

The Gender and Water Alliance (GWA) is an organization that focuses on the intersection of gender issues and water management. It promotes the understanding that access to clean water and proper sanitation are influenced by gender roles and inequalities. The GWA works to ensure that both women and men have equal opportunities to participate in water-related decision-making and management, recognizing that women often bear the burden of water collection and face barriers in accessing resources. By fostering gender equality in water governance, the GWA aims to improve water management practices and enhance the overall well-being of communities.
