Next week is the 18th Annual ESE Symposium!  This year’s theme being "The Future of WATERS", created by the 2023 ESE Cohort, the symposium will explore six critical themes around water: Wellbeing, Access, Technology, Ecological Impacts, Resilience, and Sustainability, addressing issues such as water quality, security, policy, and access.   On the first day, the students will be hosting Dan Egan, a New York Times bestselling author.  Then on the second day, students will host a panel discussion followed by a poster session.  Attached you will find flyers for Dialogue with Dan, our panel discussion, and a call for posters, along with additional details listed below. This should be a great event, and we cannot wait to see everyone!
