Research partnerships delivering water management solutions for South-East Queensland

The Urban Water Security Research Alliance has been formed to address South-East Queensland's emerging urban water issues. It is a $50 million partnership over 5 years between:

• Queensland Government
• CSIRO
• The University of Queensland
• Griffith University, Brisbane.

As the largest urban water research program in Australia, the Urban Water Security Research Alliance will have a focus on water security and recycling, but will seek to align research where appropriate with other water research programs such as those of other local SEQ water agencies, the Cooperative Research Centre (CRC) for Water Quality and Treatment, e-Water CRC and the Water Services Association of Australia (WSAA). The program will bring new research capacity to SEQ tailored to tackling existing and anticipated future risks, assumptions and uncertainties facing water supply strategy. More about the Alliance…
