Turning Water Data Into Action

Making informed, data-driven decisions requires access to reliable data and the tools to analyze it. The UN Sustainable Development Goals Report (2022) noted that only 1% of water quality data from 76,000 global water bodies came from the world’s poorest countries, highlighting a major gap in data collection and analysis. Without data, informed decisions cannot be made. This is a gap we are working to help close. Join us on May 20 when Joshua Kurtz and Sule Muhanguzi will share insights from their work in Uganda with The Ayin Project (TAP), focusing on two key topics: The purpose of developing a Water Quality Laboratory The use of ArcGIS for data collection, analysis, and presentation They will share how building local testing capacity and using geospatial data tools can help communities better understand their water, make informed decisions, and implement sustainable solutions.
