IWAA Committee
 

The IWAA Committee facilitates opportunities for IWA and AWA members to engage locally and globally in thematic activities, specialist groups, publications and events. The IWAA Committee recommend and assist to secure IWA events in Australia, to foster close collaboration between IWA and AWA to benefit the complementary objectives of both organisations and their respective members. 
 
The IWAA Committee reflects a cross-section of water sector backgrounds, connections and expertise. Committee members provide enormous value to the IWAA when this knowledge and experience is applied to IWAA activities. With ongoing limitations on international events, we are interesting in exploring other ways to engage with and provide value to our local members. We look forward to receiving your nominations and ideas.
