A Sustainable Future for Water and Sanitation? Postgraduate Workshop

Dear all
I am planning an informal workshop in London on Thurs 17 June 2010 for
academics and postgraduates working on water and sanitation issues. An
outline of the workshop is below. I hope to have around 3 short
presentations by academics and 6-8 short presentations by postgrad
students, with plenty of time allocated for discussion.

Apologies for the quite late notice, but it should be a great
opportunity for discussion.

A Sustainable Future for Water and Sanitation? Postgraduate Workshop
10.30am – 5pm, Thurs 17 June 2010
@ 11 Bedford Square, Royal Holloway, University of London

This informal workshop will be an opportunity for academics and
postgraduate students to present and discuss ongoing research on water
and sanitation. Two sessions will be held: one focusing on the
sustainability of water and sanitation interventions, and the other
discussing the relevance of academic research in water and sanitation
to policy and practice. The workshop will have a limited number of
participants to encourage discussion and help create an informal
network of postgraduate students researching water and sanitation.

Attendance at the workshop is free but registration is required and
places are limited. Please email Stephen Jones (s.d.jones@rhul.ac.uk)
to reserve a place, with a sentence summarising your research
interests.

Students interested in making a short presentation at the workshop
should email an abstract of 150 words max to Stephen Jones
(s.d.jones@rhul.ac.uk) by Friday 4 June 2010. Presentations should be
clearly targeted within one of the two sessions.
