Expertise
We apply our knowledge and expertise to a wide range of water issues. We work in the Netherlands and abroad, including developing countries. Acacia Water has specific experience in the field of rural water supply and water management in developing countries, especially in arid, semi-arid and coastal areas. Several employees have spent part of their lives and careers abroad, which allows them to quickly adapt to the local and national context of projects and the active collaboration with locally established consultants and INGOs.
Acacia Water distinguishes itself by collaborating closely with universities and research institutes. Acacia Water works with the latest scientific developments in the field of hydrology and environment. We translate the knowledge into robust and practical solutions. Our working method is inclusive, meaning we work together with our clients, partners, process stakeholders, end-users and the local communities.
