Water Figures is the quarterly newsletter of the International Water Management Institute. Previously known as the Research Update, Water Figures reports on recent research, projects, activities and changes within the institute, highlighting IWMI’s research as it affects change.

The choice of Water Figures as the new name of the newsletter arises from its ability to communicate more than one meaning: ‘Water Figures in the scheme of things..’; Water Figures as a reference to the science of water management; Water Figures as a visual representation of the spaces the resource occupies and the shapes it takes.
