THE 2023 FESTIVAL OF SOCIAL SCIENCE
21 October - 17 November
21 October - 17 November
A talk and pub quiz about water!
A fun evening focussing on the most universal and vital hydrating fluid: water! As extreme heat episodes take hold globally, keeping people and cities hydrated is becoming ever more critical. Join Dr Nirali Joshi for this fact-packed quiz, designed to test your knowledge of H20.
You'll explore how law, culture, ethics, materiality, science and markets influence the accessibility, availability and appeal of free drinking water in public spaces. The quiz will be followed by short talks by people involved in researching and providing access to drinking water. And, crucially, a prize will be awarded for the quiz champions!
