The FWR Community was launched following the IES inheriting the mission of the Foundation for Water Research (FWR) in 2022. The Community is a cohesive, innovative, and independent-thinking community of water professionals offering guidance and strategic thought leadership for the IES’s water activities. The FWR Community uses an integrated, systems-thinking approach to water issues and their interactions with land and air. The FWR Community is led by the FWR Committee and is informed by three technical panels.
