Abstract/Summary

A visit was made to Ethiopia in connection with the organisation of a workshop on geochemistry applied to water resource issues in Africa. Meetings with coorganisers (the Ethiopian Institute of Geological Surveys) and main participant sponsor (British Council) were held, and a visit paid to the probable meeting venue. It was decided that the workshop should be held during the week 25-29 September 1995 at Sodere, a secluded spa resort in the Rift Valley, with a midsession excursion to examine water resource problems in the Metahara area. The Ghion hotel in Addis Ababa, while much less ideal as a venue, would serve as a reserve in the event of unforeseen problems at Sodere. The Ghion would also be a suitable assembly point for the participants when they arrived in Ethiopia. Future priorities were to book accommodation and transport (EIGS) and to send out a First Circular to prospective participants (BGS).
