The Canadian Water Network Students and Young Professionals, in partnership with UVic’s Water, Innovation, and Global Governance (WIGG) Lab and the POLIS Project on Ecological Governance, invites you to attend a celebration of water research at UVic for World Water Day 2013!

This lunch-and-learn event will focus on fresh water and the future of British Columbia (and Canada). Bringing together students, faculty, and associate researchers from across the campus, presentations will explore complex water issues and celebrate the diversity of UVic water research—from freshwater priorities, to fisheries, to atmospheric water.

Students and researchers will share their research questions and preliminary findings through five-minute speed talks. And three water experts from the UVic community will give keynote presentations on some of the most pressing water issues being faced in Canada today.

Please RSVP to Jason Walters jswalters@me.com. A free light lunch will be provided.
