Water and the Developing World: Voices from Industry, Policy, and the Human Rights Perspective

Water is an essential human need, yet over one billion people live without access to an improved water supply. Water—and insufficient access to it—affects all aspects of development, including agricultural productivity, health, business, population demographics, sustainability, technology and human rights. Considering development, policy and technology through an interdisciplinary lens, the panelists at this year's SAID-ESW conference will discuss the future of water (for production and consumption) in our world today, examining challenges to progress, priorities going forward and promising strategies for the developing world.

Saturday, April 12, 2008 from 9:00 AM - 7:30 PM (PT)
