Global Center Advisory Board
The Global Center Advisory Board is comprised of globally recognized experts on topics including Indigenous affairs, climate change, water resources management, and governance structures and policy. The Board’s primary role is to inform GCTW research direction and promote collaborative efforts around the world. The Advisory Board actively analyzes the GCTW’s functions, approaches, and processes while providing assistance in creating scalable knowledge to be adapted to transnational watersheds in selected regions.
This group of leaders provides considerable experience and connective capacity to identify and activate participants in transboundary waterways for engagement in GCTW initiatives.
