Invitation
In the past five years, we have successfully organized a series of international
symposia on Southeast Asian Water Environment. These symposia attracted
numbers of researchers, policy makers, NGO workers, and graduate students
in the world, where the participants exchanged impressive and invaluable
body of knowledge concerning environmental issues in Southeast Asia.
Research Center for Water Environment Technology (RECWET) in the University
of Tokyo (UT) and Southeast Asian Center for Water Environment Technology
(SACWET), joint center of Asian Institute of Technology (AIT) and UT, in
cooperation with the Faculty of Industrial Technology, Institut Teknologi
Bandung and Centre for Environmental Studies, Institut Teknologi Bandung(ITB),
are pleased to announce the Sixth International Symposium on Southeast
Asian Water Environment, scheduled to be held in Bandung, Indonesia from
29-31 October 2008. The purpose of this Symposium is to provide a forum
for discussion and exchange among researchers/practitioners in Environmental
Technology and Management and related areas from the Asian Region and to
promote interaction among researchers from Asia-Pacific countries, Japan
and other parts of the world. We do hope that, through the Symposium, a
strong network or partnership with active local agents will be established,
and our colleagues in Southeast Asia will learn more from the experts of
other countries to protect the environment of the region.
On behalf of the Symposium organizing committee, we would like to invite
interested researchers/experts to send their contributions/papers to the
Symposium and actively disseminate this announcement to potentially interested
people/organization.
