The search for solutions to dangerous water quality issues in refugee camps is driving an SMU lab group's partnership with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees -- an agreement that will put the university’s faculty and students to work both in the lab and on the ground in Kenya, Uganda, Liberia and Bangladesh. SMU will develop an interactive database to help UNHCR provide safer drinking water in current and future camps.
