In followup to the University of North Carolina’s Water and Health Conference, which took place October 26-30, we’ve rounded up a number of tweets from conference presenters and participants. The conference covered a number of issues including drinking water supply, sanitation, hygiene, and water resources with a strong public health emphasis.
