Drought and Water Scarcity: addressing current and future challenges
The UK Drought and Water Scarcity Research Programme is proud to announce its International Conference to be held at Pembroke College, Oxford University, over 20 and 21 March 2019.
Droughts threaten societies, economies and ecosystems worldwide.
They are costly natural hazards, feature on global risk registers, and are expected to become more severe due to the influence of climate change and pressure on water resources from economic and demographic changes.
This conference will take an international perspective on droughts affecting our world, covering themes of climatology, hydrology, risks and impacts of drought, planning, and impacts on communities.
