Global Water Operators’ Partnerships Alliance Annual Report 2024

UN-Habitat’s 2024 Global Water Operators’ Partnerships Alliance Annual Report highlights global efforts to strengthen public water and sanitation utilities through solidarity-based peer support. The report showcases how Water Operators’ Partnerships (WOPs) are helping utilities deliver better, more inclusive services – advancing sustainable urbanization and the human right to water and sanitation.
Framed around the urgency of achieving Sustainable Development Goal 6, the report presents progress made in 2024 across four outcomes: advocacy for WOPs, knowledge co-creation, impactful programme implementation, and nurturing a global peer network. The report reflects GWOPA’s growing relevance in tackling climate, equity and service delivery challenges.
Marking GWOPA’s 15th anniversary and the launch of the second phase of the EU-WOP Programme, the report affirms the power of public utilities working together to drive systems change and build resilient communities.
