Water and sanitation specialist, Shauna Curry


The WaTER Center is proud to welcome Shauna Curry to serve as one of the WaTER Symposium jurors who will select the 2019 University of Oklahoma International Water Prize recipient. Shauna is a Professional Engineer who joined the Centre for Affordable Water and Sanitation Technology (CAWST) in 2004 and assumed the role of CEO in 2011. During her tenure, Shauna led the development and expansion of CAWST's service delivery from two countries to its current network of 5000 clients in 194 countries.

CAWST clients access services through three platforms (CAWST, WET Centres, and Virtual Services), reaching 14.9 million people with better water or sanitation. CAWST builds upon local knowledge and skills with household solutions that people can implement themselves. A hybrid organization, CAWST is both a licensed professional engineering consultancy and a registered Canadian charity.

Prior to CAWST, Shauna worked in environmental engineering. She traces her interest in humanitarian work to her parents and a solo-odyssey from Alberta to Argentina by bicycle, which solidified her passion and desire to make a real and lasting difference in the world and to do so through water. 

The WaTER Symposium will be held on Wednesday, October 10 from 6:30-9:00 p.m. in the Molly Shi Boren Ballroom at the Oklahoma Memorial Union on the Norman campus of the University of Oklahoma.  The Symposium and banquet are free and open to the public.  To register for the event, go to water.ou.edu.

  1. All these problems might be eliminated easily by adding proper amount of water in our daily diet. Additionally we will have shinny and healthy skin instead of ragged and dry skin thanks to dehydration. It's chronic cellular dehydration that kills the cell, but it's an easy solution which is to drink half your weight of water everyday.
