The Water Revolution: Practical Solutions to Water Scarcity
 
 

Online registration for this event is now closed. Walk-in registrations will be accepted.

Millions of people around the world lack access to clean, affordable water—a problem that has been greatly exacerbated by poor policy choices. In many countries, government subsidies and excessive regulation have created perverse incentives resulting in a diminishing supply and a poor quality of water. In nations where opposition to the private provision of water is prevalent, public-sector water infrastructure is typically decrepit and failing.

What can be done to promote greater access to clean water? In The Water Revolution (International Policy Network, March 2006), edited by Kendra Okonski, contributors address this issue and propose how to best allocate an already scarce water supply. Please join us on World Water Day for a discussion of practical solutions for making clean, affordable water available to everyone.
