THEME: Towards a Water Secure SADC- Groundwater Systems Thinking

*COUNTDOWN STARTED*
The Ground Water Division of South Africa and its Gauteng Branch invite all businesses, universities, municipalities, water authorities and the private groundwater users to join in discussing groundwater. You are welcome to come and share your knowledge, your products, and your experience virtually or in-person; or just join and arm yourself with vital knowledge, gain some new insights and perspectives and/or just meet up with each other again!

Recent trends in mining and exploration are set to further accelerate the demand and growth of 3D geological modelling software. These trends include the inevitable increase in cost per ton of resource and global economic slowdowns. These require companies to constantly cost-cut during extraction and to improve resource delineation. Add to this the trend that new discoveries are deeper and in more structurally-complex setting, and it’s apparent that a great deal of attention needs to be focused on getting the geometry of a deposit, as early as possible in the exploration and mining value chain, correct.

The 5th Water Research Commission (WRC) Biennial Symposium is a key event in the South African water sector calendar that will be taking place under the theme “Re-Imagine, Re-Build and Repeat: Future Proofing Water”. This year’s theme focuses on strategies and approaches that the water sector should adopt when working towards “future proofing water”.

Next intake: 20 September: Please note you will need to complete a course per month (including assessment), therefore this program will take approximately 9 months to complete.

Attend this Free TDI Training Webinar. Tdi is a partner organisation of the GWD and we welcome membership to support their events.

Considering that our current Level of COVID-19 Regulations are still in force until 15 February, and that the new strain of the coronavirus is especially virulent, we unfortunately have to postpone our Courses scheduled for 9 – 11 February (in Pretoria) and for 9 – 11 March (near Stellenbosch) to the second half of the year. We are doing our best to comply with the government’s decision to limit gatherings for extended periods of time, and we remain committed to safeguarding the health and safety of all our delegates.

This webinar series introduces practical aspects of these careers in the geoscience industry.

This webinar seeks to initiate a conversation on the synthesis of existing knowledge, case studies and best practices related to agricultural water use and water productivity from the global South and other key global regions.
