International Water Resource Economics Consortium

The International Water Resource Economics Consortium (IWREC) is the premiere global platform for water economists to initiate, share, disseminate and debate new research on water economics. The IWREC 10th Annual Meeting (August 28-29, 2012) will be hosted by the Stockholm International Water Institute (SIWI) and held during the 2012 World Water Week in Stockholm. It will feature a Chief Economists Panel debate, keynote speeches and presentations from leading experts in the application of economic analysis in water management and decision making.
