World Water Week 2026 session recordings are now publicly available. I went through 203.5 hours of the videos with my local AI and synthesised a short booklet with Astra for my own learning. I’m sharing it here for anyone interested.

Several sessions also showed why project-level gains need a wider view: greater water efficiency at one facility may not reduce pressure on the basin.
