n October NCSCE Deputy Directory Davida Smyth, along with NCSCE international Water Fellows Florencia Cancela (Uruguay) and Luz de Maria Breton Deval (Mexico) participated in an invitational conference at the Loretz Center in Leiden, the Netherlands. Davida was an organizer of a workshop on wastewater epidemiology. 
We are grateful to the anonymous funder that made this trip possible and provided critical international exposure and contacts for NCSCE leaders and their civically engaged research in public health.
