The Oasis Programme
The global platform advancing water action. High-level dialogue is combined with business engagement, live showcases and public experiences, and every format is designed to turn attention into action.
The Oasis Plenary
The main stage for water leadership. At the heart of The Oasis is an 800-person conference suite designed for global water leadership, major announcements and action-focused dialogue.
The plenary will bring together speakers from across the water ecosystem, including government leaders, international institutions, finance, industry, utilities, technology, academia, civil society and youth. Sessions will focus on the policy, capital, technology, partnerships and practical delivery needed to advance water security and Sustainable Development Goal 6.
For participating partners, the plenary creates a visible and credible platform to contribute to the global water conversation, support meaningful content and connect leadership with action.
