Designing Water Markets for Good: Policy, Technology, and Impact
Hosted by:
Markets are no longer theoretical: they’re shaping how we allocate water, fund restoration and manage risk. But should governments build markets or just set the rules? Who really benefits – participants or the wider public? Can markets work for small, not just big players? And how do we ensure they deliver more than economic benefit for participants and intermediaries – resilience, equity, transparency and shared value?
This session brings together policymakers, technologists, investors and standards bodies to explore how water markets can become markets for good: unlocking water’s full value for society and nature.
