[via Canadian Freshwater Alliance] There is no doubt that spring 2020 will go down in the history books. The past weeks have shaken our very foundations and challenged all of us to focus on what is most important in our work, in our homes, and in our communities. 

But as organizations and groups that are working to advance water security and health, how do we adapt? For many of us, events are at the core of what we do. We convene our community members for critical conversations and activities. We conduct field work to restore, monitor and protect our vital water resources.  So how do we respond to these new realities? Join with us as we explore several innovative ways our partners have responded to covid-19, and open a discussion for all participants on lessons, challenges and opportunities.  

Virtual Round Table will take place on May 14th from 2pm-3:30pm ET (11am PT / 12pm MT / 1pm CT / 3pm AT)

Project Profiles:
