WHO WE ARE
Waterways Western Australia is a new initiative hosted by The University of Western Australia and supported by the Feilman Foundation.
Waterways Western Australia aims to create a legacy of thriving waterways for future generations by bringing communities together to address key water management. Its mission is to connect communities with waterways and enable their mutual long-term health and wellbeing through initiatives that increase knowledge, understanding, collaboration and commitment to a sustainable future.
WHAT WE DO
Waterways Western Australia has three key pillars of action:
1 / Generate a body of knowledge for best practice conservation, culture, and community outcomes
2 / Nurture collaboration between leadership, community, governance, and policy
3 / Create actionable solutions for sustainable waterways management
Waterways Western Australia seeks to catalyse long-term conversations that bring government and community together and create a legacy of thriving waterways for future generations by addressing key water management challenges leading up to and beyond the 2029 Perth Bicentenary.
