EDGES at the UNESCO-IHE Institute for Water Education

EDGES collaborators Megan Peloso (current IRES Masters student), Cynthia Morinville (IRES and EDGES alumna) and Andrea Marston (EDGES alumna, currently pursuing a PhD in Geography at the University of California, Berkeley) attended a workshop from December 3-5 hosted at the UNESCO-IHE Institute for Water Education in Delft, Netherlands, aimed at developing a Water Alternatives Special Issue on the subject of Urban Informal Waterscapes.  Peloso and Morinville will be co-authoring an article for the special issue, based on the former author’s field research in Ghana this past summer, entitled “Individual Imperatives in Peri-Urban Ashaiman, Ghana: What is the Role of the ‘Informal’ Water User?”  Marston is contributing a piece that draws on her own Masters work in Bolivia, “The Scale of Informality: The Scalar Articulation of Peri-Urban Community-Run Water Systems in Cochabamba, Bolivia”.  Publication is scheduled for October 2013.
