The Transformative Water Pact (TWP) is an innovative framework for water governance. It consolidates vital principles and an action framework to guide decision-making toward transformative change in water management. This is achieved through an alternative vision based on principles of environmental justice, equity, and water stewardship.

The proposed vision of the TWP is a comprehensive approach that addresses the current water crises caused by unsustainable human activities. It promotes governance and justice models that sustain life on Earth. It recognizes that the flourishing of water bodies and ecosystems and the diversity of social, cultural, and natural values must be prioritized as an end in itself.

This webinar series aims to facilitate a dialogue among the TWP co-authors and their allies, focusing on global South countries' water governance and justice challenges. The goal is to highlight the impact of sharing valuable global experiences in advocacy, litigation, local solutions, campaigning, and research that have contributed to advancing the protection of the right to water worldwide.

Each session will address specific challenges and share lessons learned from experiences in water governance and justice in Latin America, Africa, and Asia. Co-authoring organizations will invite experts and/or organizations to present actual cases on water governance and the protection of water ecosystems in their respective areas.
