The International Desalination Association (IDA) will present its seventh Action4Good International Conference from 12-14 May in Santa Margherita, Italy.
The theme of the conference will be Creating Resilient Solutions to Water Needs and will addresscritical water, energy and environmental issues and examine the role of advanced water treatment solutions in meeting growing clean water needs.
The conference technical programme will focus on energy and environmental issues related to desalination and water reuse projects. Topics will include the Water-Energy-Food nexus, non-conventional means of supplying water, and the growing role of renewable energy in the water solutions. Time has also been allocated in the technical programme to address emergency solutions that can enable a supply of potable water to areas affected by humanitarian disasters.
