Water for All Award

The Water for All Award was instigated in 2022 and will each year, on World Water Day March 22, recognize a Water for All organization for a special achievement. The award is financed by the Peter Wallenberg Water for All Foundation and the winner will get funding to send 1-2 employees to visit an implemented Water for All project to firsthand experience how access to clean water changes lives. The overall purpose with the award is to draw attention to the work of Water for All and to pay tribute to the employees who choose to get involved, as local ambassadors or through voluntary donations.
