Brazilian Summer Program Visits District

 

Brazilian visitors

A group of lawyers, prosecutors and judges from Brazil recently stopped by the District to learn about environmental law. The group of legal experts visited several agencies throughout the state to learn about different aspects of law as part of a summer program. The visit was coordinated through the University of Florida’s College of Law.

District staff discussed Florida water law, the creation and development of water management districts, the importance of developing sustainable water supplies and some of the major programs of the District such as cooperative funding.
