The first of three annual conferences to be jointly organised by the International Water Association (IWA) and Southeast Asian Water Utilities Network (SEAWUN), the 2008 Conference will have a specific theme on Sanitation Options in the Asia-Pacific, in line with 2008 being the International Year of Sanitation.
The objective of the conference is to attract top international water and sanitation experts to share their expertise, knowledge and experiences with managers, operators and practitioners within the region, who would otherwise be unlikely to gain access to such information elsewhere.
Conference topics:
- Effectiveness and sustainability of different sanitation options in rural, urban and peri-urban communities
- Enabling frameworks for sustainable sanitation options such as policy, law, financing and training
- Sanitation and its impact on environmental and human health
- Reuse of organic waste and wastewater
Abstract deadline: 15 July 2008
