WaterSmart Involvement: Attending / Speaking
The change in climatic variability and conditions, the increase in world population, and the concentration of such world population in urban areas are increasing the stress imposed on water resources. The Smart Systems for Water Management Symposium aims at exploring the perspective of urban water demand management for the future.
Several topics will be addressed, with a particular attention on modelling and understanding the behaviour of water consumers, the drivers of such behaviour, the role of social norms, economic leverages and water demand management strategies to promote behavioural change, and the role of Information and Communication Technologies to support the design, implementation and delivery of smart solutions for urban water demand management.
