Clean Water U (CWU) is the training school of Living Waters for the World. Located in the Southern woods of Hopewell Camp and Conference Center in Oxford, Mississippi, and in the Sierra Nevada mountains at Calvin Crest Conferences in Oakhurst, California, Clean Water U is a simulation experience designed to equip mission teams with the skills necessary to form partnerships with communities in need of clean water, equip local leaders to lead ongoing health, hygiene and spiritual education and install the Living Waters for the World clean water system.

These learning objectives are taught in three separate workshops which run concurrently during the five-day session. A church/organization therefore sends three or more representatives - at least one participant for each workshop.

Graduates of Clean Water U then serve as their mission group’s team leaders in subsequent water-focused mission trips. All system parts, curriculum and related materials necessary for successful completion of these trips are available to Clean Water U graduates via our Fulfillment Center, based in Louisville, KY, and are ordered online via this site.
