WWCE 2020 Meeting COPENHAGEN, APRIL 2019
IWA’S MAIN ACTIVITIES Publications Communities Events Thought leadership Communities of water regulators, cities, utilities 2
IWA STRATEGIC GOALS 1. 2. AN ENGAGED AND A SOURCE FOR BALANCED LEADING-EDGE MEMBERSHIP WATER KNOWLEDGE 3. 4. 5. A SPACE FOR A BRIDGE A SUPPORT TO THE PROFESSIONALS BETWEEN IMPLEMENTATION TO EXCHANGE RESEARCH AND OF SDG's WATER PRACTICE KNOWLEDGE 3
IWA IN 5 YEARS TIME … A BRIGHT FUTURE We will have a growing and engaged membership, from all continents, genders and age groups (in particular YWP’s). We will bring together the best scientific & practice minds, to tackle the worlds most pressing water problems – support SDGs We will be a catalyst for innovation, knowledge and best practice for the sector – thought leadership We will create platforms to bridge the chasm between researchers, innovators & practitioners - accelerate diffusion of innovation 4

IWA will help the water sector navigate through a period of rapid change Global Change: Adaptive solutions Circular Economy: Resource miners Digital Water : IoT and automation
We want to inspire a smarter approach

Principles for Water Wise Cities Moving forward – IWA Platform For knowledge exchange among signatories Sharing case studies and best practice Identifying challenges and barriers Encourage peer to peer learning Inspire other cities to transition Partner with IWA to activate actors of change 30 urban regions endorsed 100+ individuals and companies Who to contact? 3 Partners powering up the initiative: Arup, CRC for water Sensitive Cities, Corinne Trommsdorff, Corinne.Trommsdorff@iwahq.org Greater Paris Sanitation Authority.
Digital Disrupters COGNIZANT 20-20 INSIGHTS
Benefits to the water sector combining data from real-time IoT platforms with predictive analytics, data variables can be monitored, tracked, and analysed to make informed decisions COGNIZANT 20-20 INSIGHTS
IWA Digital Water Programme • Will develop: • Thought leadership pieces to support IWA members on their digital water journey (position papers, reports, tech outlooks) • Catalogue of case studies – principles and characteristics for successful digitalization • Will provide opportunities for knowledge exchange • Integration into events (incl. a Digital Water Summit) • Products for dissemination and learning (e.g. webinars)
DWP Steering Committee • Water utilities as users of digital water technologies, • Water technology , and Software & Communication technology companies as digital solution providers • Water consultancies as strategic partners for utilities, • IWA Specialist Groups influencing or being influenced by the digital water agenda, • Research and network institutes with expertise on the development of smart solutions for water utilities.

IWA can help bridge the chasm? Bridging Universities, innovative Water Utilities technology providers the chasm 27
Our Specialist Groups will be the catalysis Opinion leaders Researchers Practitioners Tech providers Water sector self-hypnotizes itself to change through dialogue and data
IWA Innovators Platform: the journey so far IWA World Guidance paper Innovators Identification of – working with Water Congress Platform events YWPs (Sep 2018) (Nov 2018) (Dec 2018) (ongoing)
Innovators Platform: planned engagement pathways Series of events that bring innovators from supply (e.g. tech. Within IWA Events companies/researchers) to demand (e.g. water utilities) Innovators events An online platform that provides Curated online curated information on innovation platform on water innovation Highlighting and promoting innovation from IWA specialist groups 30
New FORMATS for events • Mobile sessions – facilitator takes group through exhibition, focusing on technology for specific issues (e.g. nutrient recovery) • Clinics – end users pose their problems to a solution provider • Speed dating, hack-a-thons, fireside chat/sofa, world Café • Thinking about how to include gamification & prizes 31
Innovators Platform Moving forwards Forum @ Set-up Innovator Water and Online Innovator steering platform Development platform platform committee events (Sep- Congress events (2020) (2019/2020) Oct 2019) (Apr 2019) (Dec 2019)
Wastewater is big on the agenda
85% of wastewater is NOT treated
Having treatment plants doesn't mean they work and do their job! 35 Business (e.g., hotel, airport) 30 Number of Treatment Plants Hospital 25 Military 20 School 15 Municipal/Township 10 Community-level 5 0 ( Source: Murray & Drechsel, 2011 ) Region
Next 20 years golden age for wastewater and sanitation - opportunities to “leapfrog” Innovations resulting in: • Smaller plant footprint • Energy savings (up-to 50%) • Improved CAPEX and OPEX • Improved effluent quality, resource recovery etc. Anammox Granular Sludge Thermal Hydrolysis Adv. Control
What happens when the pit is full? SANITATION SERVICE CHAIN FSM is a neglected issue with limited data 6.2.1 – safe managed sanitation https://www.flickr.com/photos/sharadaprasad/
Show me the money - financing the SDG’s $114 billion/ year required to deliver safely managed WASH $18 billion/year is approx. current spending Major finance gap Sanitation accounts for 60% of estimated costs
How do we handle the funding gap? FUNDING REPAYABLE FINANCING COSTS Capital Commercial Maintenance Finance Financing Gap Financial cost Concessional Finance Operations and Transfers Maintenance Taxes Repayments Investment Costs Tariffs
