Houston, Texas, U.S.A.

Organised by The Institute for Public Health and Water Research (IPWR), this conference will explore the range of water contamination events and responses occurring in large, medium, and community-based systems. The conference is designed for scientists, regulatory and public health officials, utility managers, and others with drinking water and communication responsibilities. Pre- and post-event communication strategies for reaching consumers will also be discussed, including best practices for communicating with diverse communities and special groups. A particular focus is the need to restore consumer trust post-event, particularly when events are persistent and appear to be chronic.

According to the conference website, the speakers will represent countries from around the world and bring a wealth of experience in consumer communication and water contamination events, including hurricanes and tsunamis, to the conference.

Conference fee: USD $400.00, includes admission to all sessions, continental breakfasts, lunches and afternoon refreshments, conference dinner on Monday, January 30, 2006.
