We are excited to announce the winners of the Water and You contest today! There were so many impressive art pieces showing understanding of "water, sanitation and hygiene" and the importance of access to safe drinking water for everyone.

Thank you to everyone who participated in the 2021 Water and You art contest! We received so many wonderful submissions which highlight the importance of water in our daily lives. We will be taking the time to judge these submissions over the next couple of months, but until then we invite you to check out some of the excellent submissions here:

It’s 8:00 in the morning in the Sindh province of Pakistan, and Sajida Awan is preparing to head back into the field to conduct a full day of interviews with local farmers. The temperature is rising, it will be 50 degrees Celsius by mid-day, and it will take her at least two hours to get to her location.

The Clean Water Here Global Photography Exhibit, in partnership with the University of Waterloo’s Water Institute, opened at THEMUSEUM on Saturday, May 5, 2018 and features 13 photographs from around the world that document what the lack of safe drinking water means knowing the water cycle in its entirety includes all uses and users.

Call for field work stories!

Hey everyone, this is the first call for the much anticipated AskProfs edition for field work stories! This will be open to a mix of profs and graduate students, since there are a huge amount of field stories out there and we don't want to miss them.

Leave us your best/worst/scariest/funniest field work stories and perhaps a lesson for the next generation of field students.
