About us
The International Secretariat for Water (ISW) and Solidarity Water Europe (SWE) bring together citizens and organizations that are committed and active in the cause of water. Their commitment is to ensure the application of the founding texts of the movement (the Montreal Charter and the Declaration of Strasbourg) to ensure access to drinking water and sanitation for all. The ISW is based in Montreal, Canada, and SEE is based in Strasbourg, France. Building on the evolution of knowledge, the development of innovative partnerships and creativity, ISW-SWE develops initiatives that guarantee the right to water and thus universal access to water and sanitation, while preserving the resource. The ISW-SWE and its partners create bridges and dialogues between all stakeholders (civil society, academic sector, private sector and institutions). The ISW-SWE acts according to three axes of action: • Field; • Advocacy and awareness raising; • Youth. The actions of the ISW-SWE movement take place more particularly in rural areas, in small communities and in peri-urban areas. They contribute to the implementation of integrated resource management, with watersheds as a reference framework.
