Watersave Network WATERSAVE Network was established with a
primary aim to develop a close interaction between a range of stakeholders
with a responsibility and interest in researching, implementing and promoting
water efficiency and demand management measures. The network includes
activities aimed at enhancing interaction between stakeholders from water
industry, research organisations, housing associations, environmental
consultants, architects, planners and policymakers from government
organisations. The network, since its inception, has been focused to achieve the
following five objectives: Communication: to facilitate communication and
co-operation, exchange of ideas/insights, data, methods and models between
academic and industrial partners Dissemination: to improve the speed and relevance of
the dissemination of new ideas, solutions, methodologies, and data, and to
improve feedback from end users through the innovative use of electronic
communication; Mobility
and cross-fertilisation:
to enhance the mobility and interaction of personnel between academic
sub-disciplines, between university departments and between academic and
industrial communities, and to foster and encourage twinning and merging of
individual ideas; Development: to allow development of new research
ideas/initiatives and to facilitate response to calls for proposals (national
and international) Excellence: to promote and encourage excellence in
research in the emerging areas of water conservation and recycling at both
the national and international level. The network was initially funded with
seed funding from Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council followed
by a contributions by the major water services providers and the Environment
