Conference on water and impact assessment - badly needs some submissions on
the social aspects of water - as per brief.
I'm an anthropologist giving a keynote speech here on the social
aspects/impacts of infrastructure, climate change etc. Would love to have
other anthro's in the mix.
All the best,
