Wavemakers United

Wavemakers United is a community of students, young professionals, and athletes with a passion for water. As a youth organization we focus on local challenges while having a global reach with the aim to contribute to the UN2030 SDGs and involve as many youngsters as possible. After the launch of Wavemakers United during the World Expo in Dubai, a globally oriented team has started on the expansion of the Wavemakers-community. The first result being this Challenge, in collaboration with IHE Delft. We believe that the UN2023 Water Conference can be a key moment towards 2030 in accelerating youth-engagement for sustainability. This also means that New York will not be the end of this project, nor our organization. We move beyond to keep creating local impact. We believe that through sports, education and positive energy we reach communities that are hard to reach. To activate these communities, let them create their own capacity to become climate resilient, and to bring together the whole world for sustainability and water.
