As a Special Interest Group (SIG), we will have various academic activities for enhancing collaborations among SD Water modelers and developing the expertise to support water management. We aim to
1. Hold (at minimum) monthly online meetings, which will be open to all members (or the public, depending on presenter preferences). These meetings may be presentations or open networking sessions. Presentations can be for seeking comments or collaboration. We will co-host meetings with other SIGs (such as the Environment and Natural Resources Management SIG), Chapters, WPI System Dynamics, the Transboundary Groundwater Resilience Network of Networks, and any other relevant/interested group. If you would like to present in a Water SIG meeting, please fill in the following form https://bit.ly/Water-SIG-Presenter-SignUp. See the SDS Calendar for our and other upcoming events.
2. Maintain a database of members. Please feel free to introduce people to our group. Please join our Slack workspace.
3. Share news promoting peer work, modeling research and publications and real world impact in the water field through email, the Water SIG Slack workspace and https://systemdynamics.org/newsletters/
4. Organize other forms of activities as proposed by members.
Contact the Water SIG by emailing [email protected].
