  What role does dessalination have in adapting to climatic change?

  La Société hydrotechnique de France (SHF), l’Association française pour l’eau l’irrigation et le drainage (AFEID), l’Académie de l’eau poursuivent leurs travaux sur les questions liées aux futures tensions sur la gestion de l’eau, en lien avec le changement climatique et les évolutions sur l’usage de l’eau d’ici 2050. Ces travaux soulignent l’importance de considérer la palette complète des outils d’adaptation, organisationnels et techniques, tant pour l’usage économe de l’eau que pour la sécurisation de la ressource. Le dessalement fait partie de cette palette d’outils et fera l’objet de ce colloque.
