Development of Desalination Technology for Social Responsibility
This International Desalination Association international conference features for the first time a unique cooperation with the Rotary International. The conference will also be held in cooperation with the European Desalination Society at the venue in Santa Margherita, Portofino, where EDS held a successful conference in 2007. In cooperation with Rotary International, the funds raised from this conference will be donated to support a humanitarian project aiming at addressing severe water issues in the District of Ankililoaka, Madagascar, where a population of over 100,000 (50% children) is badly affected by water scarcity. IDA wishes to solicit presentations from industry and related NGOs on how the association and the desalination community as a whole can be more responsive to human needs for clean and affordable potable water.
