CSU student contemplates equitable water distribution
1 JANUARY 2003
Charles Sturt University (CSU) agricultural science student Mr David Gale, from the CSU Wagga Wagga Campus, was one of 22 young people selected to attend the World Council of Churches’ international dialogue centre, the Ecumenical Institute of Bossey Institute in Switzerland in July. Mr Gale participated in the inaugural Ecumenical Water Network Summer School on Water, not far from Lake Geneva. “The incredible bit for me was that a group of culturally, sexually, denominationally, vocationally and politically diverse young adults, who have an incredible passion to see water more equally shared, were able to come together and I was able to be a part of it,” said Mr Gale. “As a group we reflected on water and the ecumenical response to the global water crisis, especially issues of privatization, water management, water scarcity, gender and water, water rights and sanitation.”
