A Note From The President
Dear Members and Participants,
I hope you were able to attend our February program on Transboundary Rivers. Dr. Marian Muste of the University of Iowa, offered a wonderful presentation. He managed to take a complex topic and make it interesting and relevant to us all. Dr. Muste has been kind enough to provide, at the audience's request, some links to resources relevant to the bigger picture of water issues. They are included below for those of you who wish to learn more.
