The CanWaCH Board of Directors serves strictly in a governance capacity and is not directly engaged in day-to-day operational decisions. While we proudly count several CanWaCH member organizations among our board representation, transparency remains a top priority. Board members are held accountable to CanWaCH’s Conflict of Interest policy. Any real or perceived potential conflicts of interest are declared and reviewed at regular intervals.
