Water security is a defining challenge for society
in the 21st century. The ancient struggle to cope with water access and
shocks is now magnified by global change to societies, economies and
climate at multiple scales.
The
international conference on Water Security, Risk and Society will convene
many of the world's thought leaders from science, policy and enterprise to
understand the status of and pathways to water security at multiple scales.
The
conference offers a platform for 200 academics, policymakers and business
leaders to respond to society's pressing water security challenges by (i)
taking stock of the evidence base informing policy choices and strategic
business decisions; and (ii) establishing investment priorities for science-policy-enterprise
partnerships. The conference fosters exchange across developed and
developing countries and regions, seeking to identify and elucidate
global interdependencies between different socio- conomic and cultural
contexts.
