The '''Stockholm International Water Institute''', SIWI, works globally to change how water is understood, valued and managed. <br />
<br />
SIWI is a not-for-profit institute with a wide range of expertise in water governance – from sanitation and water resources management to [[water diplomacy]]. It helps create knowledge, develop capacity, and offer policy advice to countries, communities, and companies.<br />
<br />
==Competence==<br />
SIWI initiates research, manages projects and carries out investigations on a wide range of water-related issues. <br />
<br />
The organization works to influence decision-makers through its power to convene, its expertise in water governance, building dialogue, and improving policies to change water governance practice<br />
<br />
It regularly publishes reports, articles and policy briefs on a wide range of water and development issues. Staff members have expertise on water management, environmental science, strategy or technical support. <br />
<br />
The '''[https://siwi.org/undp-siwi-water-governance-facility/ UNDP Water Governance Facility (WGF)]''' at SIWI works to improve water governance reform and implementation by providing water governance policy support and advice to government agencies and civil society organizations in developing countries. The Water Governance Facility also participates in global and regional water monitoring and assessment processes and coordinates the chapter on water governance in the [[UN World Water Development Report]].<br />
<br />
The '''[https://siwi.org/swedish-water-house/ Swedish Water House (SWH)]''' is an initiative funded by the Swedish Ministry of Environment and the Swedish Ministry of Foreign Affairs and directed within the SIWI organization. Serving as a network for Swedish stakeholders within different parts of the water sector, SWH aims at focusing Swedish competence in water-related issues and connecting that competence to international processes.<br />
<br />
==World Water Week==<br />
<br />
SIWI arranges the [[World Water Week in Stockholm]], an annual week-long conference for professionals from around the globe working in the field of water and development. Each August, World Water Week typically convenes approximately 2500 participants in from government, academia, civil society, the private sector and international and regional organisations.<br />
<br />
==Prizes and awards==<br />
Since 1991, the annual [[Stockholm Water Prize]], has been awarded to some of the water world’s most influential and extraordinary women, men, and organizations. It is one of the most prestigious awards of its kind and is often described as the Nobel Prize of water. <br />
[[Stockholm Junior Water Prize]] was born a few years later out of the same wish to honour important water achievements. It is a global competition for students, one which attracts tens of thousands of participants from about 40 countries each year.<br />
