14th Biennial Groundwater Conference: From Theory to Action (GWD)

Groundwater: From Theory to Action being the main theme, this biennial conference aims to bring together students, academics, specialists and decision-makers to discuss and showcase groundwater and related activities. Building on past conferences, this conference aims to highlight the issue of improving the uptake of existing knowledge and experiences to assist in solving environmental and societal problems. South Africa is well endowed with good legislation, policies and strategies. However, some of these are not fully implemented and there is a real need for stakeholders, at all levels, to use and enforce these.

This conference will aim to demonstrate these excellent resources and how South Africa can become a global leader in best practice management and implementation.
