The International Water Stewardship Standard guides companies in planning and implementing an effective response to drought and other water-related risks.
According to Fiona Sutton, principal consultant at SRK Consulting, the International Water Stewardship Standard was developed by the Alliance for Water Stewardship (AWS). “The standard guides improved water performance on~site and in the broader catchment in five steps."
"Catchment-specific risks are influenced by local water resource management and governance effectiveness in dealing with factors such as increasing demand and unpredictability driven by climate variability."
