The conversations in this round table seek to deepen the recently published volume ‘Water in Times of Climate Change. A Values-driven Dialogue’, which goes beyond the usual and predictable analyses, by bringing religion and values into a discussion that is often dominated by technocratic solutions.
This book is built on a unique process of consultation which took heart, mind and body into account – a linkage of wisdom shared by academics, policy makers, and ordinary citizens. The narratives in the book reflect the processes, the realities and the advocacy for change much needed in today’s pandemic-riddled world of inequities. The theme of water is that of life itself. Intrinsic to all health: planetary, governance, and urban and rural human realities, water defines the essence of our lives and the imperatives of our individual and institutional accountability for today – and for a tomorrow.
