Building Water Resilience through Research and Collaboration Workshop on 22 March 2024
On the morning of March 22, 2024, the NUS Environmental Research Institute (NERI) and Centre for Water Research (CWR) at NUS Civil and Environmental Engineering jointly organized a Workshop on "Building Water Resilience through Research and Collaboration," coinciding with the globally observed World Water Day.
The workshop served as a platform to spotlight cutting-edge water-related research in critical areas such as Water Quality Surveillance, Water Treatment and Reclamation, and Membrane Innovation. Through the showcasing of the pioneering research work and the sharing of knowledge from the expertise, the workshop fostered meaningful discussions among the diverse array of stakeholders from academia, research institutions, government agencies and industry practitioners.
We would like to thank everyone for spending such a meaningful morning with us to mark the World Water Day.
