The Stockholm Water Prize 2024 Nominating Committee, which consists of some of the top water specialists in the world, evaluates each candidate.
Categories
- The nominee should fall into one or both of the following categories for their major accomplishments:
- Practises and Policy
- This broad category contains accomplishments that have improved the governance and management of water as a natural and economic resource, as well as as a human right and fundamental service, along a continuum from political ideas to practical execution. The group contains:
- Applying human rights, conflict resolution, policy impact, and international collaboration to the water sector
- Water resource management that is safe and sustainable
- The provision of services for sanitation and water supply
- The creation and use of suitable technology
Research
- Both fundamental and applied research are included in this category to advance knowledge and foster scientific leadership in:
- Processes that are natural, physical, or technological
- The operation of complicated systems
- For effective, equitable, and sustainable water management and service provision, economic, legislative, institutional, or administrative principles must be developed or improved.
- Great outreach and awareness-raising successes are seen as benefits for both categories. This include information transmission to and awareness-raising of decision-makers and the general public, as well as teaching and training of students, water professionals, or communities.
