Together with the RAMSAR Secretariat, IUCN Water has partnered with Danone Waters to assess the company’s groundwater management tool. Developed internally, this tool helps Danone to sustainably manage the groundwater resources it uses for bottled water. RAMSAR and IUCN Water convened an expert workshop to evaluate the tool and its implementation across Danone sites globally, providing expert advice and guidance for future operation.
The due diligence for IUCN's direct partnership with Danone is posted here.
