International Water Association – IWA

London, United Kingdom

The International Water Association (IWA) has a long-standing partnership with IHE Delft Institute for Water Education and the Global Sanitation Graduate School (GSGS). From the very beginning, IWA and GSGS have supported each other in multiple ways. One example is the involvement of IWA’s CEO, Dr. Kalanithy Vairavamoorthy, who served as chair of the advisory committee for the first major outcome of the GSGS – the Master of Science in Sanitation program at IHE Delft (formerly UNESCO-IHE).

Since 2018, nearly 1,000 GSGS alumni have become IWA members, actively contributing to specialist groups and, in particular, to the newly established Specialist Group on Non-Sewered Sanitation (NSS).

At the 2018 launch of the new MSc in Sanitation program at the then UNESCO-IHE, Dr. Kalanithy Vairavamoorthy inspired prospective Global Sanitation Graduate School students with his address.
