New York - Altru Institute announced the formation of the Altru Water Project with the mission to advance technologies to address both water scarcity and water toxicity.

Water is a highly fragmented industry that touches virtually every aspect of the human experience and without which there is no life. Yet it is dramatically under attended in regard to the very real and steady decline in water availability and purity. Nearly 1 billion in the world lack regular access to clean water.

The simple mission is to make progress by finding and supporting the innovators working world wide with focus on specific solutions, such as eliminating PFAS foreever chemicals from municipal water systems or finding economical means to advance Atmospheric Water generation. Turning moisture in the atmosphere into drinking water anywhere in the world.

The project will commence with the development of a ecosystem directory which seeks to compile the key player in all areas of the water ecosystem. From municipalities to industry, to research, invention, new companies and funding sources. This will be a tool to help the key actors find one another.

The intiative uses the Altru Institute model of solutions through collaboration. Altru has already be reaching out those most knowledgeable to seek their input and direction. Awareness and education are the keys to success. The effort will commence in conjuction with New York Climate week September 22 to 26 and with a Salon in New York in Early October. Culminating in a global water leaders roundtable discussion in Davos Switzerland during the World Economic Forum where the Altru Institute has for the last 8 year gathered thought leaders to discuss and share infomation on complex global challenges. To learn more about the Water Project.
