À propos de ce contenu audio

Water isn't a resource to manage - it's the living foundation of all we cherish. Rivers, lakes, seas, and the water we drink - they sustain life, spark joy, nurture communities, and connect us to something greater than ourselves.


Protecting water can't happen through isolated efforts or occasional events. It requires something deeper - genuine relationships across divides, sustained partnerships, creative approaches that touch hearts as much as minds, and the patient work of weaving a movement. That's what Future for Water creates.


Through this podcast, we aim to bring together people who rarely share the same space - water company leaders and wild swimmers, government ministers and citizen scientists, regulators and artists - not for staged dialogue, but for genuine collaboration that leads to new projects and a shared purpose.

    Future For Water
    May 6 2026

    In this inaugural episode of the Future for Water podcast, Dave Wallace is joined by Claire Zambuni, founder of Future for Water, and Chris Szweda, environmental scientist and citizen scientist, to explore how a grassroots idea has evolved into a growing national movement.


    From an impromptu river festival in the Pyrenees to the UK River Summit and now the River Summit & Festival in Henley-on-Thames, this conversation traces the origin story, the momentum, and the deeper purpose behind bringing people together to rethink our relationship with water.


    Along the way, they unpack the role of citizen science, the power of collaboration, and why creating open, “safe” spaces for honest conversation may be the most important ingredient in driving real change.
