A team of University of Arizona researchers from the Udall Center and the School of Government and Public Policy traveled to Peru to participate in the Agua Andes Congress in Ayacucho. For three days, researchers, practitioners, members of non-governmental organizations (NGOs), graduate students, and community members shared their experiences concerning water issues and green infrastructure.
