What if one of the greatest geopolitical challenges of the 21st century isn’t energy, technology or even territory, but water?
We are delighted to welcome Dr Liam Fox for a fascinating conversation exploring the ideas behind his book, The Coming Storm: Why Water Will Write the 21st Century.
Bringing together geopolitics, economics, climate change, security and public health, the book examines how growing populations, urbanisation, industrialisation and pressure on natural resources are turning access to water into an increasingly urgent global challenge.
Drawing on his experience in medicine and politics, Dr Liam Fox will explore why water has the potential to reshape relationships between nations, influence political and economic stability and become an increasingly important factor in global security.
