Darwin or Alice Springs
Join us in either Darwin or Alice Springs for our July Sundowners to build your network with the NT water community. Jo Ellis, our Darwin guest speaker will provide some insights into how the US is addressing the water and sanitation access gap for water efficiency and effective onsite sanitation in the Black Belt of Alabama.
The NT Branch Committee will hold quarterly informal networking events in the form of after-work Sundowner drinks, providing an opportunity to expand your water network in the Northern Territory.
Our sundowners are free for both AWA members and non-members and you are welcome to bring a friend.
