The Water Institute at UNC Invites You to Join Us, October 14th – 18th, 2013

Bringing together academic research with policy, practice and networking events

The 2013 Water and Health Conference: Where Science Meets Policy, organized by The Water Institute at UNC, will consider drinking water supply, sanitation, hygiene and water resources in both the developing and developed worlds with a strong public health emphasis.

The conference is accompanied by several exciting events before and afterwards. Don’t miss the opportunity to network with and learn from the unique array of national and international professionals!

Abstract Submission Deadline and Conference Scholarships

The abstract submission deadline for poster and verbal presentations for this year’s Conference has been extended to May 7th. Use the menu links to access the submission page.

Scholarships will again be awarded to authors from low- and middle- income countries whose abstracts receive the highest ranking.  A first round of scholarships will be awarded to those who submit abstracts by the early deadline. In addition, scholarships will also be awarded to U.S. student authors.

Our goal is to be able to expand scholarship opportunities; if your organization would like to help support attendance from low- and middle-income countries by funding scholarships, please contact Marissa Streyle.
