After the conference …


Dear participants of the conference “Water - Blue Gold”,

I hope you enjoyed the weekend at lake Constance. Thank you for your participation.

On this page we will expose some photographs that remind you of your stay in Constance. Maybe, you look back with watery eyes... At least, we hope, that the astonishing element water has caught your attention and doesn’t let loose anymore. Keep the issue sizzling, if you can!

The first input we want to give you are texts from conference speaker Jens Loewe. They will deepen some of the issues Mr. Loewe touched upon during the panel discussion. (All documents are in Word-format and can be printed or read online.)

Wars for Water – How a Vital Resource Is Being Privatised and Becoming Scarce

New water revolts in Bolivia, March 2005

Was hat Demokratie mit dem Menschen zu tun?

Mr. Loewe will soon publish the book “Das Wassersyndikat” (The water syndicate).
