With the following expected results:<br />
Monthly meetings for knowledge sharing and networking;<br />
Capacity building, including translation of relevant reports such as World Water Development Report;<br />
Identification and formalization of a municipal pilot during 2017 - ongoing;<br />
8th World Water Forum in 2018, Brazil.
This initiative was created within the UN Global Compact Network Brazil, through the Collaboration Lab methodology. With the coordination of SANASA and Braskem, the Movement for the reduction of water losses in distribution systems:<br />
1) promotes meetings with different stakeholders of the Piracicaba, Capivari and Jundiai Hydrographic basin, <br />
2) produces studies and qualified content to improve common knowledge of water losses and engage local and state government to the issue, and<br />
3) supports the development of public policies that help to achieve the SDG 6, by launching a pilot project working directly with local government and Municipalities.
