The 3rd India Water Sustainability Forum, held in Mumbai and organized by SoulAce, brought together CSR and sustainability leaders to discuss how corporate water projects can deliver lasting results. Panels covered watershed conservation, rural livelihoods, and climate resilience, with a clear message: companies should measure groundwater recharge, agricultural outcomes, and community ownership, not just count structures built. The forum also presented a case study from Maharashtra that used satellite data and field validation to track water availability and farm resilience. SoulAce released a landscape report on CSR skill development as well. The overall takeaway is that water security programs need long-term partnerships and evidence-based reporting to stay effective beyond the project cycle.
