SUMMARY:Global Water Alliance 17th Annual Conference
DESCRIPTION:Hey there! Get ready for the 17th Annual Global Water Alliance Conference where experts will discuss the latest water solutions worldwide.\n\n\n17th Annual GWA Conference\nNature-based Solutions for WaSH: Resilience for Humans and Nature\n \nCo-hosted by Temple University College of Engineering\nThe Global Water Alliance’s (GWA) annual 1-day conference will address the power of nature as a promising and cost-effective strategy to strengthen climate resilience while pursuing sustainable development goals. What does “nature-based” mean when seeking access to safe water\, high-quality sanitation\, and opportunities to practice safe hygiene? \nNature-based solutions are intended to benefit the ecosystem while mitigating climate impacts\, improving water quality\, access to freshwater\, and quality of life. What once were strong water\, sanitation\, and hygiene (WaSH) practices need to be reevaluated and updated so that the ecosystem is not an externality. This is a paradigm shift in the way we define these problems and develop solutions. Our conference will explore how to create inclusive policies\, practices\, and technologies. Leaders in the field will discuss access to safe water for nature and humans\, as well as strategies for the integration of sanitation systems within their respective environments. \nWe welcome practitioners\, educators\, students\, and organizations to attend this interdisciplinary conference. Continuing education credits can be earned and there will be opportunities to network and participate in discussions. \nOur conference is conveniently scheduled the day before the annual Careers in the Water Industry organized by the Water Center at the University of Pennsylvania\, making it easy to attend both events. \nContinetental Breakfast and Boxed Lunch are included in ticket prices. \nGWA members receive a discounted conference rate. If you are interested in membership\, please visit our Membership Page before purchasing your tickets. \nVisit the Conference Website for more information including the Conference Agenda. \n——— \n \nNot able to join us in Philadelphia? You can attend virtually!\nThis is a hybrid conference with in-person and virtual attendees. As a virtual attendee\, you can watch the conference in real time and participate in Q&A through chat. Virtual attendees do not pay a registration fee. \nREGISTER HERE to attend virtually through Zoom.
