What ideas came up during the summit?

During the summit there were a series of break-out groups on 11 April 2006. The first break-out session discussed issues related to water availability and supply, water quality and contaminants, natural resources management and sustainability, and socio-economic issues related to urban growth and human health. The second break-out session discussed networking and data sharing issues in relation to regions. The table gives a link to the reports for each break-out group.
