The UBC Centennial Emerging Research Workshop on Water will be held on March 8-11, 2016.
The workshop is one initiative that will celebrate the 100th anniversary of UBC’s first graduating class. It will bring together leading water experts from UBC, the global academe, NGOs, and the public to share knowledge and advance emerging ideas.
The workshop aims to connect the diverse community of water researchers at UBC across multiple disciplines. In doing so, the workshop and the post-workshop strategy session will aim to generate a practical roadmap for building a cohesive and comprehensive water research cluster.
