Promotion and Awareness
ADB’s Water Awareness Program (WAP), implemented from 2002 to 2005, created an environment supportive of effective water policies in the Asia-Pacific region. It was one of the six program categories under the Cooperation Fund for the Water Sector (CFWS).
For four years, the WAP program expanded water sector knowledge within and outside ADB through various awareness tools. Critical water issues across Asia and the Pacific received media mileage through WAP knowledge products and other activities organized or supported by WAP.
Today, ADB continues to promote public awareness on water issues through new and evolving awareness tools and media activities.

These awareness tools were initially designed and disseminated under the Water Awareness Program and are being expanded as part of ADB’s continuing efforts to promote public awareness on water issues.
