The Wastewater & Environmental Surveillance Meeting is the region’s premier technical and policy platform dedicated to advancing public health and environmental resilience. We are convened by a consortium of academic, governmental, and industry leaders who recognize that the crises of emerging diseases and environmental degradation demand an integrated approach.

Our core mission is to champion the One Health framework by bridging the gap between cutting-edge Wastewater and Environmental Surveillance (WES) science and actionable public policy. This conference serves as a vital nexus for knowledge exchange, collaborative strategy development, and capacity building, ensuring WES is established as a sustainable, core tool for proactive disease control across West Africa and beyond.
