We proudly present the "Member of the Month" special feature series that provides insights into the work of our members, the successes they achieve, the challenges they overcome, and the thinking behind their IAWD memberships.

We introduce "Member of the Month" because we all know very well that IAWD's success is driven by lively communication, mutual support and shared know-how and experiences. The better we get to know each other, the more positive energy feeds into our community.

Customer Care will continue to be essential in improving the quality of service offered. We have a 24 hours Call Center service with our Green Line, and we have One-stop-shop service through 18 UKT points all over the city.
 

Why should young people work in the water sector?

Young People should work in the water sector because the water sector is one of the most important sectors globally where employees have opportunities for career advancement.

Why did you become an IAWD member?

We became IAWD member because we want to share information and knowledge with the other water utilities in the Danube region. Also to be part of the capacity programs offered by IAWD and its partners such as: Danube Water Program and the Danube Learning Partnership (D-LeaP).
