You will connect directly with visionary resource experts in water treatment technologies, policy development, and community level water management who will share their global knowledge in the water sector.

Our labs offer dynamic programming and challenge to ignite passion and spark innovative ideas and new skills to approach the future of water.
In the 21st century, water will be the marker of how countries flourish or fail. WIL is a transformative opportunity to expand your thinking with a tangible experience of water projects and observing challenges firsthand.
Everything about WIL is designed to bring to the surface new thinking and solutions that can be implemented once you return to your place of work. Bottom line: you will leave the program with invaluable new connections you can turn to in the years ahead.
