Distinguished Lecture Series - hosted by Dr. Razavi
The Distinguished Lecture Series in Water Security at the University of Saskatchewan brought together leading international experts in water science, policy, and sustainability to share cutting-edge research and insights. Open to researchers, students, and the public, the series covers a wide range of topics—from climate-driven hydrologic extremes to water systems management and resilience building in communities —making it a key platform for advancing dialogue and knowledge on global water security.
The series successfully ran for a decade, hosted by Dr. Jeff McDonnell and Dr. Saman Razavi. Here we have included a selection of lectures hosted by Dr. Razavi. The full series can be found on the Distinguished Lecture Series webpage.
