Australian Partners

Our partnership base comprises six sub-groups: private; educational and research institutions; not-for-profits; Federal government agencies; State government departments or agencies; associations; and water utilities. The interests and offerings for these sub-groups to engage in the partnership are very different. AWP strives to be a vibrant partnership that is attractive to the whole partnership base where partners can contribute in meaningful and diverse ways to AWP’s primary value proposition.

Australian Stakeholders

The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) is currently the sole funder of AWP. Primary engagement is through the Governance, Fragility and Water Branch in Canberra which provides the connection with DFAT Posts and regional staff and water specialists.

We collaborate with the Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment (AWE) on water resource management related activities identified under country or state level MoUs to which the AWE is the signatory party representing the Australian Government.

We collaborate with the Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade) on water resource management related activities.
