The 14th Annual Conference ‘How to make better constructed wetlands’ is taking place on the 12th & 13th September at Portsmouth University, recognised for its long history of wetland research.

Day one (12th September) will offer an ‘Introduction to Constructed Wetlands’ training session, with informative lectures in the morning followed by an afternoon guided visit to see local wetlands in action and apply the morning’s learnings.

Day two (13th September) will bring delegates up to date with the latest developments in constructed wetlands through presentations sharing the knowledge of leading academics and practitioners in the field of constructed wetlands with the key themes:

  • Building partnerships to deliver multiple wetland benefits
  • Using natural ecosystems to reduce pollution in river catchments
  • New approaches to wetland design.


Conference delegates are all invited to join a social evening on 12th September and attend the CWA Annual Meeting on the afternoon of day 2, where they can have their say in the CWA’s direction, strategy and committee for 2018/19.

Speakers and conference sessions will be announced shortly.
