Board of Directors

The CWN Board of Directors is the primary executive authority of the Network. Members of the board include distinguished leaders of industrial, government, non-government, academic, and community sectors.

The Canadian Water Network has been fortunate to attract a broad cross-section of exceptional Canadians to guide the organization. The Board of Directors and the Program Management Committee have been instrumental in helping the CWN build on its successful origins to create a truly integrated national "innovation knowledge network" that embraces strong partnerships as the key to success.
