Aim

VWI works to shift the mining sector water use practices to be more sustainable and employ the valuing water principles when setting water use and management plans and policies.

Expected activities

• Facilitating dialogue between actors to collectively address unsustainable water impacts
• Raising the profile of water and its multiple values within national action plans on mining
