World Monuments Fund (WMF) is reviving historic water management systems in India and Nepal as a way to tackle the growing challenge of water insecurity. In this event, WMF Vice President of Programs Jonathan S. Bell and expert guest speakers consider the opportunities presented by these efforts to address intersecting contemporary issues, including the impacts of urbanization and climate change on access to clean water.

With guest speakers Jharna Joshi, Architect and Visiting Associate Professor at Kathmandu University; Yaaminey Mubayi, Historian and Author; and Mohan Rao, Principal Designer at Integrated Design (INDÉ).

Featured projects will include the Historic Water Systems of India and the Hitis (water fountains) of the Kathmandu Valley, both of which originated with WMF’s World Monuments Watch, a program that brings together individuals, communities, and leaders from across the public and private sectors to safeguard irreplaceable cultural heritage.
