But we need your help!

No life without water

Essential. Reliable. Invaluable. Water is the thread that weaves together our daily lives. It keeps our communities healthy, our cities running, and our economies growing. While essential, water infrastructure is largely invisible to most people. But not to us.

Denmark has the world’s most sustainable and efficient water cycle

In Denmark, we are leaders in developing and implementing water technology. In fact, we have the world’s most sustainable and efficient water cycle — and we want to contribute to a sustainable world with clean water for everyone.

Denmark has a long history of effective water management and 50 years of experience with the green transition. Our cities are liveable, blue, and green cities introducing smart integrated water solutions, climate-resilient neighbourhoods, and harbours clean enough for its city dwellers to swim in.

Danes drink groundwater directly from the tap thanks to efficient wastewater treatment. As a living water laboratory, Denmark has a lot to offer other countries to meet global climate and sustainability goals.

Denmark’s water solutions can catalyse change across the world

The world is facing numerous challenges relating to water distribution, management and recycling:

* 100% of the world's population needs access to drinking water

* 80% of the world’s wastewater remains untreated

* 40% of drinkable water is ”lost” due to poor management

Danish companies developed a lot of solutions to help tackle these challenges.

We can’t solve all the problems in the world, but we can provide and innovate technical solutions, which can catalyse the process.

And we need your help to do it!
