Meaningful youth engagement in the #WaterSector in Meaningful youth engagement in the #WaterSector in Asia and the Pacific is fundamental sustainable #WaterSecurity and resilience. Highlighting work from our Network of Partners, @gwp_water has proudly contributed to six of the #youth case studies in Asian Development Bank (ADB)’s brand new publication, including Waterlution: CASE STUDY 5: WATER INNOVATION LAB Water Innovation Lab (WIL), a flagship program of non-profit organization Waterlution, is designed to accelerate collaborative innovation, fast-track global knowledge sharing, and devise innovations that improve water security and support climate change adaptation. WIL supports emerging leaders to implement Sustainable Development Goal targets connected to water in their organizations and their projects. WIL develops future water leaders to think holistically, design innovatively, and communicate effectively across cultures. Furthermore, it equips the next generation of policymakers and waterpreneurs with mindsets and skill sets to lead through collaboration, creativity, global engagement, complex problem-solving, and impact-oriented thinking by cross-sector and cross-disciplinary approaches for knowledge sharing. The program uses unconventional, self-developmental, and self-directed learning methods in participatory, creative, and boundary-pushing facilitation and development processes. WIL’s methodology is based on facilitation tools and techniques such as the Art of Hosting; design thinking; systems approach; and social, artistic, and cooperative games. The co-innovation process ensures participants do not arrive with a solution seeking a problem. Rather, the program invites participants to explore complex water problems presented in advance of a WIL and during the program through learning visits. Co-innovation projects that emerge out of WILs are eligible for seed grants and supported for 9 months post-WIL intensive training. By 2023, 22 WILs had been hosted, with more than 1,000 young leaders trained and applying for funding to meet water challenges. As a result of WIL, more than 90 projects have been developed in 10 countries that address pressing water issues.
