Event Coupling Sustainable Sanitation and Groundwater Protection: Symposium to the International Year of Sanitation (IYS) 2008

This event, Symposium to the International Year of Sanitation (IYS), is organized by BGR. It will focus on applicable solutions for the protection of groundwater against anthropogenic domestic effluents in the context of developing countries. It will address the gap between technical approaches and political challenges and provide a forum for international decision makers to get in contact with practitioners. This will help the political level to recognize planning challenges and find practical solutions for sustainable sanitation.
