Water has become a key strategic issue for leading global companies: 39 percent of companies are already experiencing detrimental impacts related to water issues, according to the CDP Water Disclosure’s first report. To prepare for increased water scarcity and growing consumption needs, water must be tracked, assessed, reduced, and reused. Companies today must understand their water footprints and develop an appropriate set of responses that address water-related risks within their direct operations as well as in their supply chains and in the watersheds in which they operate.
 

Join BSR for an afternoon workshop that will illustrate best practices in water management. We will draw on the best of BSR’s water strategy development projects, focusing on how to conduct and interpret a water-risk analysis, develop responses to water-related risks, and prioritize management efforts.
