About us
Who we are
CIWEM represents and supports a community of thousands of members and organisations in over 90 countries who are dedicated to improving water and environmental management for the benefit of the public.
As an independent charity we champion professional standards, impartiality and the use of scientific evidence in the management of the environment. We champion:
- Highly qualified water and environmental managers, engineers and scientists who are recognised globally for their professional expertise and conduct.
- Protection of the public from pollution, environmental destruction and natural hazards through the promotion and sharing of best practice.
- Application of scientific rigour and impartiality to plans and policies ensuring the best outcomes for society now and in the future.
We are an exciting organisation to be a part of, facing a world full of immense challenges and opportunities.
