The 9th International Meuse Symposium will take place on Tuesday, September 12th, 2023, in Liège (Belgium).
We will organize the 9th edition of the International Meuse Symposium together with the “Samenwerkingsverband Schone Maaswaterketen” to broaden the topics towards water quality – which has been mentioned by the participants earlier. Samenwerkingsverband Schone Maaswaterketen (partners for clean Meuse water chain, https://www.schonemaaswaterketen.nl/) focuses in particular on organic micropollutants - medicines and industrial chemicals.
For this year’s edition we look for presentations on the following topics:
Water quantity | Water quality |
Hydrology of the Meuse catchment | Monitoring of organic micropollutants - considerations for selecting which pollutants to focus on and working towards action perspectives |
Weather extremes: floods and droughts | Effective cooperation on dealing with indirect discharges and locating these types of sources of pollution |
Climate adaptation | Data collection and sharing on water quality, sources of pollution, permits and improvements |
Water usage and stakeholders | Dealing with the EU directive on urban wastewater |
The registration form is already open:
