This year’s WaterNet/WARFSA/GWP-SA symposium for water professionals was held in Mauritius from 27-29 October, attracting over 300 international delegates. Some academic staff members from Chancellor College, namely, Prof W. Mulwafu, Assoc. Professors C. Ngongondo, M. Monjerezi and S. Sajidu, Dr C. Mhango and Mrs M. Joshua attended the conference and presented a variety of papers in water and land, water and society, water and the environment including being part of special sessions in specific projects such as the AU project on Using IWRM best practices to develop Appropriate Capacity and Training for the benefit of Sub-Saharan Africa Water Security (ACT4SSAWS). 

The members also chaired and were rapporteurs for some sessions, and were adjudicators of young researchers in both oral and poster presentations.

We would like to congratulate Associate Professor Cosmo Ngongondo who was appointed Guest Editor of the Physics and Chemistry of the Earth Journal (JPCE). Among other issues, JPCE publishes proceedings of the Water symposium after extensive peer review processes.
