Area Water Partnerships (AWPs), established by Pakistan Water Partnership (PWP) directly or independently at their own. Area Water Partnership is not a total replication of Global Water Partnership at local level. GWP is mandated to promote IWRM through global Networking which is in fact its dominant function. AWP would be the facilitating arm of GWP at the grass root level to implement IWRM by involving all water related institutions and stakeholders.

Area Water Partnerships, main task will be to identify interdependency of various water related institutions and the stakeholders in water and to suggest necessary reforms for mobilizing their work on an integrated basis.
