Co-Convening 2nd Water Women’s Day–Stronger Together
CWiW is pleased to be one of the co-conveners for this 2nd Water Women’s Day event through SuSanA on September 26th.
After our successful women’s day in March, we are excited to invite you to our upcoming Water Women’s Day (virtual) on Tuesday, September 26. This special event is dedicated to celebrating the remarkable achievements of women in the water and sanitation sector and fostering a sense of community and empowerment among us all.
Join us for a day filled with great discussions, inspiring stories, career tips, and valuable networking opportunities. It’s a chance to connect with like-minded women, share experiences, and gain fresh perspectives on how we can collectively attract more women to join and build careers in the water and sanitation sector.
