Author(s): Bjørn Holm

Chair: Mary Trudeau, Envirings Inc, Ottawa, Canada / IWRA
Oral: PDFAbstractAre the freshwater management related issues we have seen in this Congress a uniquely island related matter, or are they similar to challenges and opportunities
happening elsewhere in the world? Does a city on an island have similar freshwater management challenges than non-island located cities? In this fire side
chat we will explore these questions through the lens of Ottawa in Canada and Tórshavn in the Faroe Islands.
