The Dugald Clerk Lecture is a biennial prestige lecture held in honour of Dugald Clerk (1854-1932), the Scottish engineer who designed the World's first successful two-stroke engine. An ICE bequest established a lecture in his honour, to be on 'subjects connected with mechanical engineering and, or, water or coastal structures'. The Dugald Clerk lecture has become the ICE's prestige lecture for the water sector, alternating yearly with the Gerald Lacey Lecture. ## ## The lecture takes place at a time of potentially significant change for the water sector, with Ofwat launching a £200 million Water Innovation Fund for 2021 to drive a step change in the innovation capabilities in the water sector. Climate change, COVID-related financial constraints, and changing patterns of water usage due to population growth or relocation, all significantly increase the need for innovation in the water sector. ## ### INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: Please Note FREE SHIPPING IS UK ONLY.
