Global Water Works: Reconnecting People and Water
Update: 2025-06-30
Description
In the latest episode of The Water Zone, Mary Conley-Eggert and Frank Slovenec, co-directors of Global Water Works (GWW), discuss how their nonprofit platform connects technology, case studies, and community expertise to accelerate smart water solutions worldwide. They highlight rainwater harvesting as an overlooked but powerful approach and share how GWW has helped implement major collection and purification systems across Africa. The conversation also explores “orphan lakes,” with GWW estimating that 40% of U.S. lakes are impaired or neglected. To address this, they’re leading a pilot program in Illinois that uses real-time data to track the status of 12 lakes.
