Why should I join WISA?
Stakeholders and role players need a space for interactive consultation. The Water Institute of Southern Africa (WISA) is unique in that it provides a home for the many role players in the sector, from local government to academic researchers, NGOs, water management organisations, engineers and everyone who supplies or uses water. It gives them a voice and a platform within which to interact, to ensure that constraints are understood and coherent approaches are adopted. It facilitates the sustainable development, management and use of water resources in the Southern African region.
