On 3 October at 14:30 CEST the Space4Water Webinar Series will kick off. In the series we will feature distinguished speakers and experts covering topics on the use of space technology and data to address water issues, within the whole water cycle, so from source to sea, with experts coming from a wide range of disciplines dealing with space technology and water.

The format of the one-hour episodes can be

  • technical presentations and lectures,
  • trainings, or
  • panel discussions.

If you would like to present, apply as a speaker here.

The first episode we will feature Dr. Amos Kabo-Bah, from the University of Energy and Natural resources, who will speak about Groundwater scarcity and availability – the role of Earth observation techniques and technologies. Register here.

Many more interesting speakers have expressed interest. Stay tuned and sign up to our newsletter (We send no spam, only event invitations ~ 4x a year).
