Digital Pathways to Climate Resilience: Innovations from IWA Climate Smart Utilities

Climate Smart Utilities (CSU) are water, sanitation, and urban drainage service providers that are actively strengthening their resilience to climate change while contributing to the sustainable reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. As climate-related challenges intensify globally, utilities face increasing pressure to deliver resilient, efficient, and sustainable services. This threatens their capacity to ensure sustainable management of water and sanitation for all, in alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Under the IWA CSU Programme, leading utilities have been recognised for their outstanding efforts to become climate smart through the integration of climate adaptation, mitigation, and leadership strategies.

This webinar will showcase how these utilities are harnessing digital solutions to manage climate risks and deliver on their sustainability mandates.
