The Partners for Water programme has granted 11 new projects with subsidies to support their innovative initiatives. These projects, developed in close collaboration with local partners, aim to improve water security worldwide. They span diverse regions and countries worldwide.
Below, you will find a table summarising the consortium partners, projects, technologies being used and the countries where these projects are taking place.
| Consortium partners | Country | Technology |
| Blue21 Consulting B.V. | Curaçao | Saving costs by artificially raising beach levels through sand suppletion and constructing breakwaters. A floating breakwater tuned and optimised with hydromechanical modelling software minimises coastline erosion. |
| GreenFresh Aquaponics | Ghana | Aquaponics is a sustainable and innovative agricultural technology combining raising fish (Aquaculture) and cultivating crops without soil (Hydroponics) with 90% less water than conventional agricultural practices. |
| IHE Delft – Institute for Water Education | Jordan | Photo granular Technology for Wastewater Treatment with Resource Recovery (PHOTORR). An efficient and sustainable technology with low energy demands, recovering resources and operational without chemical additions. |
| Resilience BV | Kenya | Nazava is Kenya's only WHO-tested household water filter, effectively removing dirt and bacteria. It integrates an anti-fluoride add-on filled with hydroxyapatite (HAPaqua) into the Nazava Water Filter. |
| Beccan Davila-Puentes | Mexico | MODULAGUA is a comprehensive approach for the treatment and reuse of wastewater and stormwater, with a primary focus on irrigating green urban areas. It integrates advanced technology, specifically, a Flotation Bio Reactor (FBR), with Nature-Based Solutions. |
| Reefy B.V. | Mexico | Pilot project of engineered ecological breakwaters for a resilient coast (PROTECT). The project aims to demonstrate the functionality of the Reefblock in a tropical environment to comprehensively assess the Reefblock structure’s ability to address coastal erosion while maintaining or enhancing marine biodiversity in a relevant context. |
| Watt BV | Mozambique | FlexFLID is a flexible service model for Farmer-Led Irrigation along sand rivers. The project promotes a technology package to tap water from sand rivers, including a hand-drilled wellpoint system and a small solar-powered pump. |
| FutureWater | Nepal | The project aims to improve water security and agricultural productivity for smallholder farmers by piloting an affordable, low-pressure irrigation solution adapted to mid-hill farming. |
| FutureWater BV | Pakistan | Flash droughts forecasting; a unique development combining satellite data with ground-based observations and state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms to forecast drought impacts. |
| Ferrtech | Taiwan | The GREENCHEM project uses FerSol®, a green chemical in environmentally friendly water purification, responding to the global need for clean water. FerSol® was recognized as the most innovative SME of 2023. |
| LG Sonic BV | United Kingdom | Project that pilots and demonstrates a novel technology, Phos-Out, that provides a sustainable solution to internal nutrient loading by physically removing phosphorus from lake sediments without harming the ecosystem. |
