Ground Zero for Innovation in Water Re-use and Recycling
Jan 10, 2025 | News Press Releases Sustainability Water Reuse
As Cape Town prepares for a major water re-use and recycling conference in March 2025, the City demonstrates to the world that it is ready to assume leadership in this critical and rapidly-evolving sector.
Cape Town’s approach to Day Zero water supply in early 2018 created shock waves around the world. It was at the time widely recognised that this might be the first time globally that a vast, modern metro region was in serious danger of running out of its most critical resource: Water for drinking, food preparation, sanitation, healthcare, recreation, industry, and agriculture.
In response to the crisis, the City of Cape Town developed a water strategy based on the understanding that water security would have to become everybody’s responsibility and that everybody’s relationship with water would have to change going forward.
