Friends,


WASRAG's Second World Water Summit was held at Birmingham's National Motorcycle Museum on June 19th, immediately prior to the 2009 RI Convention.

Unfortunately many people were unable to travel to Birmingham. The troubled state of the world's economy and high costs in the UK had a significant impact on attendance. All the more unfortunate because we had a great program lined up. However the wonders of modern technology make it easy for you to share in the day's events!

Just go to the following link on the WASRAG website: 2009 World Water Summit

You will find an audiotape of the whole day (divided into four sections) and a link to the PowerPoint presentations that the presenters used to illustrate their points.

Plans are already underway for an event in Montreal (Canada) on Saturday June 19th, 2010, immediately prior to the RI Convention. We'll keep you posted!

If you have any questions about the Summit or encounter any problems in accessing these materials, just contact us at info@wasrag.org.

Best wishes,

Ron Denham, Chair
Water & Sanitation Rotarian Action Group
