You are cordially invited to submit abstracts and subsequent full papers to the bi-annual Water Efficiency Conference organised by the Water Efficiency Network and:
- The University of the West Indies, St. Augustine Campus, Trinidad, West Indies.
- The Association of Professional Engineers of Trinidad and Tobago (APETT).
Aim
The bi-annual conference aims to foster knowledge exchange and transfer between academia, researchers and industry practitioners. It is a good opportunity to showcase the latest, cutting edge research and developments related to the conference theme: Small Island Developing States & Water Resources Resilience. Small island regions are acutely aware of the environmental risks and the need to invest in more resilient water services to safeguard its economic growth and development. Therefore, this conference will include special sessions on Regional Integrated Approaches, Sustainable Water Resources Management Approach and Climate Change Adaptation for tackling the complex challenges of Small Island Developing States (SIDS) across the Caribbean region.
