The Understanding Water series continues with a look at the role of water in the development of the city of Adelaide. It's a story punctuated by water shortage, damaging floods and water quality issues. What do the people of Adelaide think about water? How much we are prepared to pay for it? And how do these factors influence water management?

Join a panel of experts and host Simon Royal to explore people's interactions with water - water for drinking, cleansing, transport, recreation and fitness, health and restoration or image promotion. This event will highlight the fact that the economic, aesthetic and spiritual value of water must be included in any discourse on its sustainable management.

Panel includes Andrew Lothian, Christel Mex and Martin Shanahan.

This event is in association with the Barbara Hardy Centre for Sustainable Urban Environments.
