Organizer: Centre for Science and Environment

Venue: Visakhapatnam

Description:

Water is keenly contested today. Reports are emerging from across India about water bodies being encroached upon, gobbled up and sucked dry by a combination of forces ranging from industrialisation and urban growth to population pressures and severe pollution. A state of continuous conflict exists over these water bodies, lakes, rivers, reservoirs, streams and wetlands.

Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) has recently launched a media fellowship on this contentious subject. To further investigate, analyse and initiate discussions on it, CSE announces a fellowship media briefing workshop on water bodies in India.

All journalists working and writing on development issues in the country, including freelancers, are invited to apply.
