WATER is essential to life on earth. Human beings and the animals who 
share our environment suffer when nature and human conduct diminish 
access to clean water. Both science and diplomacy are needed to 
promote wise stewardship and peaceful sharing of water.   A well 
informed public can provide support for domestic and international 
governmental water policies which protect this precious resource and 
avoid conflicts over its possession and use.

Forum speakers will be:      Jerome Delli Priscoli - U.S. Army Corps 
of Engineers; expert in water and security issues; has participated 
in multinational negotiations about water resources on every 
continent.     Jeffrey Dozier - Founding Dean of UCSB Bren School of 
Environmental Science and Management; former Senior Project Scientist 
for NASA's Earth Observing System.     Hilal Elver - UCSB 
Distinguished Visiting Professor; former UN Environment Program Chair 
of Environmental Diplomacy.     Engin Koncagul - Programme Specialist 
/ Coordinator for the World Water Assessment Programme hosted by 
UNESCO.     For information: Julie (805) 845-6554 - JBowdenMS at aol.com
