In addition to a considerable technological The key findings from my experiences in Israel, gap between urban and remote systems, there Oman and the United Arab Emirates have been is consequent social and economic inequity and developed into nine recommendations that may be disadvantage. applicable to regional and remote communities in Significant differences between urban and remote Australia and are worthy of further exploration and contexts (economies of scale, logistics challenges, discussion across the water industry. long distances, etc.) don’t allow for transfer of innovation from urban systems to remote systems. There is potential for new insights to be gained from small scale systems overseas. My motivation to apply for a Churchill Fellowship was to discover what other nations, facing similar water scarcity challenges, are doing successfully to manage their small regional and remote communities’ water supplies and learn about their expertise and experience in dealing with similar challenges (remote, small-scale and water-scarce). Panoramic photo of Paran moshav’s farms where cutting-edge methods of farming are used 9 to grow fruit and vegetables in the arid region of the Arava Desert using brackish water, Israel We know water is wealth and stored water is a bank. Water is a vital resource for Australia, but we need to strategically plan our future water infrastructure so we can better utilise this precious resource to drive prosperity and improve sustainability in rural industries and regional economies.” Former Minister for Agriculture Barnaby Joyce (from the National Roundtable on Water Infrastructure, 29 October 2014) 10 Recommendation 1 Numerous innovative water treatment technologies have been developed by Israel’s water sector in recent years and they could have major benefits for remote and regional Australia including enhanced operating performance, no reliance on chemicals, simplicity and low operating and maintenance costs. Recommendation 2 High-performance brackish water desalination technologies are becoming more practical, economical and energy-efficient and can represent a good option for regional and remote water systems facing water quality and water scarcity issues. Recommendation 3 Renewable energy desalination, which combines energy efficient desalination technology with renewable energy power, is showing great promise to supply affordable, reliable and safe drinking water to regional and remote areas. Recommendation 4 Establishing smart artificial groundwater recharge systems by using flash floods and water run-off to preserve and enhance groundwater resources as a practical measure to store and augment the availability of fresh water for future use and to enhance adaptative water management in response to climate change. Recommendation 5 The use of smart data collection and management tools, using leading-edge technologies, to drive a comprehensive, probabilistic and integrated management approach has potential to revolutionise the way regional and remote water sources and services are managed.
