We are excited to announce that Lindsey Blodgétt, principal founder of Next Wave Consulting, was chosen as the recipient of the esteemed 2023 IWRA Water Drop Award!
Each World Water Congress Year (3-years), the International Water Resources Association (IWRA) celebrates one early career professional who made substantial contributions to the water sector through research, entrepreneurship, and raising the profile of younger people in the water sector. Lindsey is fervently passionate about recognizing youth as voices of change.
As a Water and Climate Coalition Leader (under the secretariat of the World Meteorological Organization), and former President of the World Youth Parliament for Water (2018-2021), Lindsey has advocated for youth engagement to influence the global water and climate agendas.
In September, Lindsey will travel to the XVIII World Water Congress in Beijing, China, to receive the 2023 Water Drop Award from IWRA.
This honor goes beyond Lindsey’s personal achievements, symbolizing the collective efforts and support from those who have rallied behind her endeavors in the water sector.
Receiving the Water Drop Award has profoundly reaffirmed Lindsey’s dedication to this cause. Fueled by this momentous recognition, she is even more determined to continue working towards a sustainable and water-secure future for all.
