Technical Workshops will be held on Thursday 19 May and also on Friday 20 May to provide a high technical content during the week of the ICOLD Annual Meeting. Two parallel sessions will be held on each day. The Workshops will be presented by South African, Regional and International experts and adequate provision will be made for discussion by the attendees. Provision is made for registration for the Symposium and/or the Workshops only. This will also give such delegates an opportunity of visiting the Exhibition.
