Priory of St. James, Toronto, Canada
Water Research


Here at the Priory of St. James in Toronto we are interested in learning as much as we can about the problems with water supply around the world and this page is dedicated to learning more.

  • Resource Development International
    Proposal to Deliver Water and Sanitation Products to Support the Tonle Sap Environmental Management Project - Cambodia

  • Cambodia CF Project

  • Water Woes
    Water. If you've got it, you probably take it for granted. But a quick scan of the globe -- and a chat with the tiny group of researchers who are obsessed by fresh water -- both indicate that water shortages are looming.

  • Water for Life
    Water is crucial for sustainable development, including the preservation of our natural environment and the alleviation of poverty and hunger. Water is indispensable for human health and well-being. The United Nations General Assembly, in December 2003, proclaimed the years 2005 to 2015 as the International Decade for Action 'Water for Life'.

  • UN Water
    In 2003, UN-Water was endorsed as the new official United Nations mechanism for follow-up of the water-related decisions reached at the 2002 World Summit on Sustainable Development and the Millennium Development Goals. It will support Member States in their efforts to achieve water and sanitation goals and targets.

  • Water
    The UNESCO Water Portal’s objective is to improve access to information on freshwater on the web. The site serves as a thematic entry point to the current UNESCO and UNESCO-led programmes on freshwater. It also provides a platform for sharing and browsing websites of other water-related organizations, government bodies and NGOs through the water links and events databases.

  • UNICEF
    More than 2.6 billion people – forty per cent of the world’s population – lack basic sanitation facilities, and over one billion people still use unsafe drinking water sources. As a result, thousands of children die every day from diarrhoea and other water sanitation and hygiene-related diseases and many more suffer and are weakened by illness.

  • Elsivier
    Water Research publishes refered, original research papers on all aspects of the science and technology of water quality and its management worldwide.

  • The National Water Research Institute
    Environment Canada's National Water Research Institute (NWRI) is Canada's preeminent freshwater research facility, the largest in the country with centres on the shores of the Great Lakes in Burlington, Ontario and in the heart of the Canadian Prairies in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. From these vantage points, NWRI extends its influence across Canada and beyond, leading world-class research on freshwater issues.

  • Water Research Network
    This is a multidisciplinary database of research, researchers and institutions dealing with fresh water issues all over the world. The network includes natural and social sciences as well as the humanities.

  • Water Aid
    WaterAid works in 17 countries providing water, sanitation and hygiene education to some of the world's poorest people.

  • WaveGen
    We are experts in wave energy technology, project development and management, as well as current and potential applications of wave energy.
