Last weekend, we celebrated both World Environmental Health Day (26 September) and World Rivers Day (27 September). 🏞️
Rivers and their fundamental role in environmental health were topics at the heart of our work with the CGIAR Initiative on NEXUS Gains. The Scriptoria Strategic Communications team led all external communications for NEXUS Gains, driving engagement and amplifying valuable research into the sustainable management of watersheds across the Global South.
For example, we facilitated an expert-led webinar on the future of river health monitoring, which you can watch here: https://www.cgiar.org/news-events/news/from-local-to-global-a-framework-to-monitor-river-health

Today's the International Day for Universal Access to Information 📖🌍
Across the world, researchers generate valuable knowledge that can help address complex challenges. But information can't create impact if it's inaccessible to the people who need it most. It must be communicated clearly, shared widely, and made accessible to everyone.
At Scriptoria, we support researchers make their findings more accessible and impactful. From developing successful proposals and sharing research findings to building the skills needed to engage diverse audiences, our courses can be tailored to suit your needs.
Because knowledge belongs to everyone, and has the greatest impact when it can be understood, shared, and put into action.

Happy International Day of Peace, from the Training Team at Scriptoria! ☮️🕊️
Peace is more than the absence of conflict. It is built through cooperation, shared understanding, and the ability to work together to tackle global challenges.
Around the world, researchers are connecting ideas, expertise, and perspectives across borders to address some of humanity’s greatest challenges — from climate change and food security to global health and sustainable development.
At Scriptoria, we support researchers and organisations by providing hands-on training that helps them communicate their ideas, secure funding, and share their findings effectively.
Building stronger research communities starts with connection and shared learning. Get in touch with our training team to explore how we can help your researchers collaborate, communicate, and create impact.

Scriptoria’s work has always had sustainable development at its heart. As we look back at a decade of progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), we’re continuing our series celebrating 25 years of Scriptoria by revisiting some of our strategic communications projects.
🔸 Goal 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities 🔸
Project: World Water Council’s “Start with Water” guide
Services: Concept development | Writing | Editing | Graphic design | Layout | Project management
Published in 2018, the World Water Council’s guide “Start with Water: Putting water on local action agendas to support global change” was developed to help local and regional authorities understand what global development frameworks mean for water management at the local level – and, importantly, act on water-related targets for their cities.
The guide brought together four major global frameworks: the New Urban Agenda, SDGs, Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction and Paris Agreement, alongside other water and urban development frameworks.
It then translated these complex agendas into eight practical recommendations, covering areas such as equity, water-sensitive urban planning, governance, finance, resilience, capacity, efficiency and sanitation – supported by inspiring city case studies.
Scriptoria supported the development of the guide from concept development, writing and design through to final publication, creating an accessible and practical resource for decision makers.
For us, this was a great example of how strategic communications can help turn complex global agendas into clear, engaging and actionable guidance – supporting those working on the ground to translate international commitments into local action.
The project was just one significant part of a five-year partnership with the World Water Council - Conseil Mondial de l'Eau.
