About The Water Conservancy

The 'not for profit' advisory hub for education, facilitation, and adoption of a more conscious and efficient approach to water use in Australia.

Previously known as Smart Approved WaterMark, we've rebranded as The Water Conservancy with a broadened remit to enable all Australians to use water efficiently in order to conserve more and waste less.

What we do

Increasing everyone’s perceived value of water is key to conserving more and wasting less. We work with water suppliers, businesses and householders to help communities achieve that.
