Public Events Organised by WAC
BACKGROUND: The Awards & Brickbats program in 2008 resulted in a brickbat for the government for its poor management of water. We soon found that other community organisations were equally concerned and we all came together as an informal group to organise a Community Water Summit and host Maude Barlow, UN representative, at a seminar in Adelaide (see side menu for details).
