Wow, the wonders of modern IT! Thank you, SuSanA secretariat and SEI!

It was a highly enjoyable and rewarding experience to follow the SuSanA meeting with the live streaming over the internet!! I hope quite a few people were able to view it.
Thanks to all who made it happen!! (Madeleine, Trevor, ...)

This will hopefully become the standard in the future for any important (open) meeting.

I have put some thoughts on this also in the other thread on social media for sanitation, please see here:
forum.susana.org/forum/categories/62-wg-...-for-sanitation#5505

If you missed it, look out for the recording of the meeting which will be available soon-ish, and look out for the next SuSanA meeting or side event where this might be done, if possible.

Hi All

I got this information by e-mail yesterday and thought it's relevant to all. Note in particular the option to attend the SuSanA meeting online via streaming internet video. That sounds good!? Trevor/Madeleine, can you tell us more about this? Is the number of participants limited or unlimited for it?

Oh and if anyone is tweeting about the meeting (with Twitter), please use the hashtag #17susana for it. Thanks.

Dear all

The working group 1 meeting will take place on Sunday afternoon 15.00 to 17:00 in the lobby in front of the Parkside Restaurant (the upper lunch voucher dining hall) at the world water week (1 September 2013).

The topics to be discussed are so far:

• WG1 knowledge and experience exchange: This is open to you! Let me know if there is any past/current/future activity you are involved in which you would like to share in a 5 min slot with other WG1 members
  Remark: send an email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
• Past, current and future activity of the WG1: how can we as a working group contribute to the objectives and the roadmap of SuSanA? Where do we see our role? How should our a working plan for the next 5 years look like?
  Example of future activity: possible future activities: e.g. overview on Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) in the field of sustainable sanitation; inputs of SuSanA for existing MOOCs (e.g. where SuSanA members are involved), etc.
  Remark: We have already some time to discuss shortly these questions during the SuSanA meeting.

We have already 8 participants that confirmed their participation (depending from their availability) and requests for online participation. This will not be possible, because the meeting is not during the general SuSanA meeting at SEI. A summary for feedback will be posted on the forum and sent out by mailing list.

See you soon!

Dorothee

Dear Trevor et al

Regarding the proposed 75 minute session in Session 2 about SuSanA's contribution to the post-2015 dialogue, I am not sure if this will be so relevant at this stage as think it will probably be too late.

best regards,

Jonathan

Just a quick correction:

The SuSanA working group 5 "Food Security and Productive Sanitation" meeting will take place on August 30 (instead of Aug. 29) from 9:00 to 11:00 at the International Terra Preta Conference in Hamburg. More details will be announced shortly.

Best

Dear all

The first draft agenda for the upcoming 17th SuSanA meeting is out, you can download it here www.susana.org/lang-en/meetings/17th-susana-meeting-stockholm. Please take a look and provide your comment on the proposed format here in the forum. Moreover, please also provide your ideas, suggestions and recommendations for possible table topics for the World Café afternoon session.

Remember also to register for the meeting if you are sure you will be there: www.susana.org/lang-en/meetings/17th-susana-meeting-stockholm.

Kind regards
Trevor

Just to avoid disappointed and confusion: please only register for the SuSanA meeting if you are more than 95% sure that you can actually come! In the past, people sometimes registered in the hope that registration also meant invitation and sponsoring for the trip to Stockholm. This is not so! You have to pay for your own travel and accommodation (but there is no registration fee)

If you want to register but you are not certain that you can actually come, please mention this in the comments field of the registration form to make it easier for the organisers to know what number of participants to plan for.

Thanks,
Elisabeth
