Women Plus Water Conversations

Women Plus Water Conversations

The Women Plus Water Conversations is a series hosted by the Global Institute for Water Security and the College of Arts and Science at the University of Saskatchewan. The series showcases research, supports young professionals and provides a space for dialogue and networking. Additionally, it explores water-related challenges, roles of women in water, gendered water-related impacts, and challenges and opportunities facing women in water research. Women Plus Water is an inclusive community and all are welcome to attend.

Water Fridays

Water Fridays brings the water community together from across USask and partner organizations once every three weeks to meet and share new knowledge developments. This is a chance to meet regularly with new and old friends, catch up on the research that is happening across campus and beyond, get feedback on your own work, and engage in fun and interesting water-related activities. We hope that this will stimulate new collaborations, identify opportunities of mutual benefit, and develop a community of water researchers. Everyone is welcome!
