The Global Water for Sustainability (GLOWS) program is a consortium financed by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) working to increase social, economic, and environmental benefits to people of the developing world. GLOWS works on-the-ground to implement water supply, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) services, improve water management practices, and build local capacity.

The GLOWS Consortium is led by Florida International University and includes CARE, WaterAid America, Winrock International, World Vision, and the World Wildlife Fund (WWF). Together the partners possess skills and worldwide experience in water supply/sanitation/hygiene, water productivity, and water resources management.

GLOWS is the freshwater component of USAID's Global Program for Integrated Management of Coastal and Freshwater Systems (IMCAFS), which also features the Sustainable Coastal Communities and Ecosystems (SUCCESS) program. SUCCESS emphasizes coastal resources, aquaculture, and fisheries management, under the leadership of the University of Rhode Island's Coastal Resources Center.
