Title: Our water mark: Australians making a difference Type: Report Focus: Water Date: 2007 Publisher: Victorian Womens' Trust Download: You can read about the project and download the report here.

Our water mark has been compiled to provide people in the Australian community with a credible and accessible source of information about a key natural resource, which is in crisis - water. After 5 years of research, community dialogue and scientific input, the Watermark Australia Project published its pioneering work Our water mark: Australians making a difference in water reform in July 2007.

Our water mark creates the ‘big picture’, establishes a national goal for all of us to strive toward, identifies a set of guiding principles and outlines, in detail, the various ways we can all live within our ‘water means’ – in this the driest inhabited continent on earth. There is a wealth of detail about the current state of our water resources, presenting an informed and knowledge-rich framework for thinking about, and acting upon, water issues.
