McMaster University is the new home of a United Nations think-tank on water and health.

The International Network on Water, Environment and Health is one of 14 such institutions worldwide that are part of United Nations University.

A ceremony and UN flag raising yesterday marked the institution's arrival at its new home in McMaster's Innovation Park. Among those attending was Konrad Osterwalder, UN undersecretary general and rector of United Nations University.

"With our ongoing concerns about climate change and the importance of clean and available water, the work of the International Network is especially important," McMaster president Peter George said.

The International Network was created in 1996 to strengthen water management, particularly in developing countries.
