AGWA will convene the first in a series of seminar-discussions-exchanges covering a variety of topics related to climate-resilient water management. These virtual meetings will feature flash talks as well as opportunities for thematic discussions, plus announcements from our members.
In the first installments for the series, we will focus on the role of Nature-based Solutions (NBS) for climate resilience. In order to reach a wider range of members, we will hold two separate calls — each featuring a different flash talk on the subject. We anticipate lively discussion on the pros, cons, limits, and opportunities of NBS for adaptation and mitigation following these short case study presentations.
Calls will take place on Zoom, where participants can join by computer or phone. Register for either call using the links below.
