Waste Management Plan for Ottawa
|
|
Rachael Jones has worked in solid waste management for more than 10 years, including 7 years experience working in this sector
within a municipality in Metro Vancouver. Her experience in solid waste management is broad; from developing and implementing new policies
and programs in support of waste reduction and diversion efforts to managing both collection and processing contracts.
|
|
As a Project Manager
in Solid Waste Services at the City of Ottawa she transitioned to focusing on longer-term waste management planning. She is currently the
Project Manager for the City of Ottawa's 30-year Solid Waste Master Plan that is currently being developed and, while being the technical
lead for the project, she is also very involved in designing and delivering the public engagement strategy for the project and ensuring community
feedback informs development of the plan.

March 22nd, Dr Indu Gambhir
Doctors Without Borders
|
|
Dr. Gambhir will give us an insight into the work done by Doctors Without Borders in places where there is little or no organized health care
and where there is the ever-present danger of finding oneself in the middle of a war zone. This is Sudan.
Work means dealing with infectious diseases such as tuberculosis, sleeping sickness and HIV/AIDS and at the same time
meeting the challenge of providing general health information to the population.

PROBUS' Vital Purpose
... to stimulate thought,
interest and participation in activities at a time in life when it is easy to become complacent and
self-centred.
