WATERNET AND THE ROYAL DUTCH WATER NETWORK WILL STAGE THE FOLLOWING CONFERENCES DURING THE INTERNATIONAL WATER WEEK:

1. Water Cities in Transition
Science Center NEMO Amsterdam, 31 October – 1 November

This conference will serve as a forum linking urban planners and water managers and focus on the latest developments in water city transitions: coping with climate change-related challenges, linking them with socio economic issues and inspiring integrated solutions in urban design and practice.

2. Water and Innovation: Water Technology
RAI Amsterdam, 3 – 4 November

The aim of this conference is to identify innovations in water technology that contribute to the entire water cycle and that result in improved system economy and performance, more sustainable systems and a clear focus on the customer. International Water Week shares this same focus: integrated solutions!

3. International conference on benchmarking
RAI Amsterdam, 3 – 4 November

If the focus of a large number of benchmarking activities is to learn to achieve and improve on organizational efficiency and effectiveness, how do we rise to this challenge? While the goal is evident, the task of achieving it is often less obvious. IWW 2011 Amsterdam offers a unique moment in an international forum to share knowledge on this subject.

4. Water related to Sustainable Energy
West Indisch House, 1 – 2 November 2011

Integrated combinations in the field of water and energy are necessary to find solutions to the challenges we face: climate change, ageing infrastructure, urbanisation, resource shortages, etc. During the conference, total solutions and business concepts for cities, industrial areas and rural areas will be presented and discussed.

5. Water Operators Partnerships
Waternet, 2 November 2011

This conference offers us the opportunity to reflect on experiences with WOPs. The most important question is how can we improve our WOPs and increase their effectiveness even further.

6. Young Water Professional Programme
RAI Amsterdam / Waternet, 29 October – 4 November

Young people are the link between the present and the future. To meet the global water challenges, the water sector needs a new generation able to take a fresh perspective and have a mindset that is daring, unconventional and what can best be described as “out of the box”. The water sector is a growth sector. There is more than enough room for young professionals, and the sector offers ample opportunities for growth and development. The focus is on students and young professionals under the age of 35, and the IWW Amsterdam will be a platform, highlighting the challenges the water sector faces, available opportunities and how they can be involved.
