The Center for Water Security and Cooperation The CWSC
The Center for Water Security and Cooperation works to advance water security and cooperation by understanding, evaluating and innovating in water security and WASH law and governance across the world. Law creates the necessary enabling environment for eliminating the release of untreated wastewater and pollutants into the environment, for managing our water resources equitably, and for increasing access to safely managed water and sanitation. We work to understand the role and effectiveness of existing laws in advancing access to safely managed water and sanitation and water security and to work with stakeholders to transform their legal infrastructure.
