To achieve the outcomes of having a positive water impact in 100 basins, as stated by the Business Open Call to Accelerate Action on Water, we need more engagement from companies and from different stakeholders at the basin level. The session will present how Local Networks of the UNGC can play a vital role in engaging local companies and in helping to identify local collective action implementers and work with them on campaigns and advocacy. We will also hear from an implementation partner about the importance of having global and local support to boost collective action outcomes. The Second part of the session will focus on ways we can innovate on the technological and financial sides to allow better decision-making processes, impact tracking data, and funding alternatives to facilitate companies' engagement in collective actions.
