Upcoming Global Challenge Events
Friday, November 13, 2009 | 1:15 PM - 5:30 PM
Water and Health: Global Issues and Our Shared Responsibilities
During his presidential campaign, then-Senator Barack Obama was frequently heard to exclaim that "water is one of the grand challenges facing the 21st century." Since his election President Obama has highlighted several aspects of this pressing issue, including:

Universal access to clean water
The increasingly complex politics of water
The crumbling water infrastructure which poses threats in even the most economically developed nations

Speakers:

Rita R. Colwell, PhD, University of Maryland College Park

Erik R. Peterson, MBA, MA, Center for Strategic and International Studies
M. Gordon Wolman, PhD, Johns Hopkins University
