https://www.siwi.org/about/career-opportunities/SIWI is a policy institute that generates knowledge and informs decision-making towards a water wise world. SIWI conducts research, builds institutional capacity and provides advisory services in developing countries in areas related to water governance, transboundary water management in perspectives of for example climate change, energy and food and urbanisation. SIWI organises the World Water Week in Stockholm and hosts the Stockholm Water Prize and the Stockholm Junior Water Prize.
The Water Resources Department aims to close the implementation gap between policy and practice through strengthened governance for water resources - from source to sea. The work of the Department includes developing and applying research-based tools and methodologies in the advisory services and capacity building it provides to its clients; the development and implementation of projects and programmes; knowledge management; advocacy on emerging and neglected governance issues and contribution to international events and processes.
The Water Resources Department implements a number of major programs in the areas of water resources and source-to-sea management. SIWI has driven innovation in the field of source-to-sea management and hosts the Action Platform for Source-to-Sea Management (S2S Platform), an international platform that works in the interface of terrestrial, freshwater and oceans/marine issues. The Water Resources Department implements the Source-to-Sea Programme, which supports application of the source-to-sea approach in source-to-sea systems and develops knowledge resources to inform international processes, policy and strategies and to support practical implementation. The Water Resources Department also hosts the Water Governance Facility (WGF), which is a collaboration between the UNDP and SIWI. WGF promotes improved water governance reform and implementation in developing countries. This includes supporting countries, through UNDP offices, in the planning and implementation of climate adaptation and mitigation measures in the area of water. One of the programs within the WGF is GoAL-WatERS, which aims at supporting governance aspects for improved water resource management in countries around the world.
