The Young Water Professionals (YWP-ZA) programme was started as a volunteer group in partnership with the Water Institute of Southern Africa (WISA) as well as the International Water Association (IWA) to answer the needs of YWPs in Southern Africa. Since then the YWP programme has been officially included into the WISA structures as a division. The aim of the YWP programme is to fulfil the present and future needs of the water and wastewater industries in Southern Africa, an aim which requires the continuous development of a workforce which is adequate in size, capable in skills and strong in leadership. YWPs are the future of the water sector, and therefore the future of socio-economic development and environmental sustainability. Without water, no other industry can function; without water, no plant or animal life can survive. To fulfil this aim, the YWP-ZA body has the following objectives: to support and facilitate YWPs to play an active role in WISA and IWA activities, and in so doing to elevate the profile of these associations; to ensure the YWP-ZA programme remains relevant to YWPs; to provide opportunities for YWPs to network, communicate and collaborate; and to provide career development opportunities for YWPs. What are the objectives of YWP-ZA Provincial Chapters? To elevate the profile of the South African water sector in the global arena and conversely to elevate the profile of global water-related activities in South Africa by encouraging young
