The “2000-Liter-Gesellschaft” (2000-Liter-Society) Conference will take place on the 26th of September 2013, 9:30 – 16:30 at Hotel Schweizerhof, Lucerne, Switzerland (see flyer attached).
The conference will be held in German and French.

The focus of this conference is to develop courses of action to achieve the following goal: The reduction of the Swiss average per-capita water consumption by half.

The unequal distribution of worldwide fresh water resources is one of the major global challenges for the upcoming decades. Increasing water stress narrows development perspectives in many regions already today. While water stress is hardly perceived in Switzerland so far, it is dependent on the sustainable use of water resources due to its involvement in global consumer markets, thus by importing virtual water. By reducing the average per-capita water consumption by half, long-term development perspectives shall be ensured.
