The Mill Debates 2008

The Galway One World Centre’s monthly debate series continues next Tuesday 11th March at 6.30.Although water is absolutely fundamental for life to exist, over 1 billion people in the world lack safe access to clean water and 25 million people in the world die every year as a result of contaminated waters.is month’s topic concerns one of the most urgent problems facing global society -ensuring access to safe drinking water. Although water is absolutely fundamental for life to exist, over 1 billion people in the world lack safe access to clean water and 25 million people in the world die every year as a result of contaminated waters. Last years cryptosporidium crisis in Galway highlighted that water supply is an issue with universal effects.

At this months debate Nick Jones from the Latin American Solidarity Centre and Meave Kelly organiser of the Galway Water Crisis protest group will discuss some of these issues. The discussion will focus on similar issues in diverse geographical locations from the river Corrib to the Orinoco. Nick Jones will focus on the current campaign by his organisation to keep water resources out of international trade agreements. All are welcome to attend and contribute to this discussion and light refreshments will be served.

Note:
This month we will also be using our debate as an occasion to launch the programme of events for Latin American Week, which takes place from the 7th – 11th in Galway and will be organised by Ecology Society Nuig, the One World Centre, Amnesty International and the Latin American Solidarity Centre.
