Welcome to the Reservoir Center, collaborating to overcome the world’s water challenges.

What is the Reservoir Center?

Opened in June 2022, the Reservoir Center for Water Solutions (Reservoir Center) is a consortium of water sector non-profits committed to collaborate as thought leaders to solve global water issues. Our aim is to develop breakthrough ideas and solutions, eliminate barriers, and advance the water sector’s work to overcome critical water and sustainability challenges. The Reservoir Center is located along the banks of the Anacostia River in Washington, DC’s Navy Yard, and provides event, work and meeting space.
