Under the high patronage of the President of the Italian Republic and of the European Parliament

Inside of the summit Labirinto d’Acque 2018 – the Italian focal point of the World Water Day celebrations – the University of Parma together with the Labyrinth of Franco Maria Ricci organizes the International Conference of March 21, 2018, in cooperation with UN-Water, UN-Chy of WMO, WWAP of UNESCO and ISPRA.

The global water crisis calls us to our responsibilities, even personal. We will meet to discuss water scarcity and innovation, in the labyrinth of Franco Maria Ricci, a fascinating place built in the search of harmony between man and nature, where culture and art show us the virtuous path to sustainability.

The March 21st conference is a networking event on the efficient conservation, protection, development, planning, management, and use of water. Researchers, practitioners, public institutions, and industry are invited to showcase their latest research and practice and management solutions.

In the morning it will take place a high-level symposium on the state and future prospects of water resources. In the afternoon an oral session of presentations on innovation and water efficiency will be held simultaneously with an exhibit run by participants, an opportunity of networking for researchers and scholars, who will be able to show the results of their studies.

It is required to fill in the registration format to participate as free listeners
