The BWA also offers information and impartial advice to end-users of groundwater – over the phone, via email and their website. They aim to educate the public through using their own communication channels, such as the Borehole Water Journal, bwa.co.za, and publications like Groundwater: A Layman’s Guide to Borehole Ownership. They also reach end-users through public relations initiatives.

The BWA has a close relationship with the national Department of Water and Sanitation. Thus they are aware about government priorities and initiatives in the groundwater industry.

They have established partnerships with international organisations such as the National Groundwater Association in the USA (NGWA). They also work with local organisations such as the Ground Water Division of GSSA, Joburg Water and SABI as they carry out shared aspects of their respective missions.
