WaterWords

There are plenty of water events being offered this term.  The department is hosting the London Water Research Group seminar series and there are some water-related talks by the KCL Geography’s Environment, Politics and Development group, to which many of our King’s Water staff belong.  In addition, for those of you based in London, head out to the hip area of Shoreditch for the Passenger Films event on ‘Revisiting CHINATOWN – voices in contested water’ on Friday 22nd November.  Dr. Alex Loftus and his PhD student, Richard Bater are among the discussants.
