The Water and Oil Sands Waterlution workshop is a two-and-a-half day residential workshop that engages Canadian youth in dialogue surrounding current water issues in the province of Alberta. This workshop is in its fifth year and focuses specifically on the oil sands region, where vast quantities of water are used for Alberta’s booming energy sector. Participants will look closely at corporate operations, the provincial government’s policies, the engagement of First Nations and community leaders, and how these groups work together in managing water within this intensive environment.

The purpose of this workshop is to develop future leaders in water resource management and related fields. Participants will be flown from Calgary to Fort McMurray on a group flight departing the afternoon of October 25 and returning late on October 27.
