WHO ARE WE?

The Water Institute of Southern Africa (WISA) brings together experts from a wide range of disciplines to meet, discuss, plan for and present solutions for a sustainable water future in the region. Water is one of the greatest challenges facing South Africa and its neighbours – so governments, stakeholders, partners and public participants must come together to find innovative ways of managing water to ensure a sustainable and robust water supply for our growing urban populations. Effective water management is only possible when interrelated factors and needs are considered.

WISA is proud to be the organisation that is championing that mission. With more than 80 years since WISA was founded in 1937, we are proud to have grown from strength to strength to become the reputable body we are today.

WHAT DO WE DO?

WISA members are continually striving to find effective and efficient ways to deliver excellent water services to everyone. This means doing the required research, learning from our water histories, and ensuring that the essential human capital is in place to action the change we need to achieve our water goals. We realise that it is up to us to collaborate on innovative and appropriate solutions that will make possible thriving cities that will be liveable for many decades to come. With the involvement of other southern African countries, we hold biennial conferences to bring together major players in the water sector. This is an exciting space where we further expand our objectives of promoting the science and practice of water management, together with good corporate governance. WISA values integrity, professionalism, community, transparency and innovation. We want to lead in strengthening strategic partnerships within the sector, while playing an active role in encouraging robust water discourse in the public domain.

WISA was officially formed in 1987, not as a body that had been spontaneously created at that time but as one that had evolved over more than half a century incurring several name changes on route. The first creative steps were taken at a meeting held at the Cydna Biochemical laboratory in Johannesburg on May 4. 1937, when the following resolutions were passed:

 

  • That it is unanimously agreed that an Association shall be, and is hereby formed, the objects of that Association being set forth in pages 13 to 15 of the Articles of Association of the (British) Institute of Sewage Purification.
  • That this Association shall forthwith take steps to become recognised as the South African Branch of the Institute of Sewage Purification.
  • That a temporary committee be elected to deal with local by-laws and necessary correspondence, the committee to consist of: Messrs H Clausen, JA McLachlan, BR Spencer and H Wilson.

 

Biennial conferences became routine and venues were rotated between the larger centres. The first Biennial Conference was held in 1963 and has been held every second year more or less since then. The involvement of other Southern African countries led to the name change to be the Southern African Branch of the Institute of Sewage Purification. By 1967 general consensus had been reached by the Parent Body to change the Institute`s name to the Institute of Water Pollution Control (IWPC) with expanded objectives of promoting the science and practice of wastewater management.

WISA coat of arms and logo

The WISA Coat of Arms was designed by Robert A Laing of Colington, Ygr. The Coat of Arms was accepted and registered by the State Herald:

The IWPC Kingfisher has been retained as a dominant feature but has a fish in its mouth instead of a sword thus indicating a need for fresh water resources. This idea is further confirmed by the motto Aqua Vita Est, which means Water is Life. The black area of the design represents polluted water containing bubbles of rising gas. The bridge represents mans intervention leading to the production of clean water depicted by the wavy lines beneath the bridge. The design alludes to a Cape Dutch Gable thus reinforcing the South African sphere of operation.

In the WISA logo the shape symbolises dynamic motion and the colouring represents the transformation of polluted water (dark) to clear, `clean` water.
