The AWA is the main industry association that I engage with. In my experience they have consistently facilitated an active and relevant dialogue on water efficiency in a way that no other industry association has. Also the diversity of membership seems to span all spheres of the water industry - I think a 'broad church' like this is the best place to thrash out our key water management ideas and issues.
