WWF’s water risk assessment identified priority regions for PVH to focus our collective action water stewardship initiatives based on the level of risk defined by the WWF’s Water Risk Filter tool and PVH's sourcing communities. One of those key locations was India's Cauvery Basin. Specifically, PVH and WWF will work together to help conserve freshwater resources in the Cauvery River basins. Calvin Klein, along with local partners, will lead the work in Cauvery, India, a location known globally for textile production. The work done there will aim to understand the local context and build impactful collaborations with key stakeholders that will reduce water-stress on the environment, people and economy.
