“UWI conferences provide a forum for frank discussions around the most pressing issues affecting the water sector. We don’t shy away from controversial topics – rather we tackle them head on and look for solutions. I’ve attended more than 20 UWI conferences and always look forward to the next one because of the unique expertise they bring to the table for the benefit of the group.”
