Effecting change in the real world
At the Cooperative Research Centre for Water Sensitive Cities (CRCWSC) we put water at the heart of our cities’ biophysical, economic, and social wellbeing. We bring together global thought leaders to drive cross-disciplinary research into urban planning and water management in Australia and overseas. Collaborating with our university, industry, and government partners, we help cities respond to today's pressing water problems for the benefit of current and future generations.
Our impact is diverse: end-users are empowered with new research, effective tools, and an opportunity to join the global transition to water sensitive cities.
