Quebec municipalities: Let's work together to improve water management in Quebec!
The latest report of the Auditor General of Quebec recently stated that water management in Quebec is deficient and that more links between the research community and research users need to be built. The Municipal Forum on Water Research Needs is used to survey municipalities on their concrete research needs in the field of water management. CentrEau, Quebec's strategic water management research cluster, invites municipalities to come together to explain their real research needs. See the previous meeting of the Tribune »
What will you get out of these meetings? Ideas for collaborators relevant to your issues/research, a project description, an exchange on solutions found by other municipalities... and more!
Target Audience: This meeting is particularly aimed at municipal drinking water managers and university and college researchers.
