Wastewater utilities are key actors in maintaining water quality and managing risks to public health, food security and other ecosystem services and functions. The tracking of COVID-19 brings new relevance to this topic. Monitoring wastewater systems for viral loads has long been a common method to track infections in urban populations, most notably the effects of vaccination against poliovirus. This webinar will bring together experts in the urban sanitation and wastewater fields with water/wastewater utilities from different regions to hear about their challenges, solutions and outlooks.

Time: 13.30 - 15.00 CEST
