August 16 through 22 is World Water Week - an annual recognition of the planet's most precious resource, and an opportunity for individuals and companies to collaborate on solutions to the growing challenges.

Hosted and organized by the Stockholm International Water Institute, World Water Week (www.worldwaterweek.org) in Stockholm has served as the annual focal point for the planet's water issues since 1991.

World Water Week provides a unique forum for an exchange of views and experiences between the scientific, business, policy and civic communities. It focuses on new thinking and positive action toward water-related challenges and their impact on the world's environment, health, economic and poverty reduction agendas. It does so by:

• Exploring the interconnected problems of water, society, the environment and economic vitality, building capacity and charting action toward practical solutions.
