Amsterdam Agreements

To accelerate the transition to a resilient and circular water cycle we need action!

With the AIWW, we want to encourage international collaboration by sharing challenges and the search for joint solutions. The Amsterdam Agreements, which originated at the AIWW in 2017, aim to support case owners, experts, suppliers and investors in achieving sustainable cooperation resulting in real breakthroughs on water issues. The Agreements support new partnerships and the scaling up of new solutions to provide a concrete approach to work on the Sustainable Development Goals.

Five new Amsterdam Agreements in 2019

At the AIWW Conference 2019 we have worked hard to create new Amsterdam Agreements. This year participants focused on the main theme of the AIWW: implementation of integrated solutions by cities, industries, utilities and financiers: from cases to bankable projects. We are very proud to announce five new Amsterdam Agreements, signed during the Amsterdam International Water Week 2019! Four were presented during the plenary closing of the AIWW Conference and the fifth during the VU Watersymposium on Thursday 7 November.

1. Smart Blue- Green Rooftops (RESILIO)
2. Living Labs (Waternet and AMS Institute)
3. River Based Management (NWP & OMVS)
4. Smart Water Metering System (KIFFWA, Earth View and Resource Water Authority).
5. Values-Based Actions (presented during the VU Watersymposium on Thursday 7 November)

Also, the 2017 Amsterdam Agreements have been extended and one of these extensions, the Amsterdam Agreement between Waternet and NYC-DEP, has been festively renewed and signed.
