International Association For Hydro-Environment Engineering and Research IAHR

Who are we? ●IAHR is a prestigious worldwide association of specialist engineers and researchers working in hydro-environmental science and engineering ●IAHR is the oldest international association engaged in water science, engineering and research first founded in 1935 by world’s leading hydraulics research institutes ●IAHR strategy is to engage leading hydro- environmental companies, government agencies and institutes with scientific advance

Who are we? ●IAHR has over 4000 members worldwide: specialising in different branches of hydro- environment engineering and research ●IAHR regional focus with Divisions in: - Asia Pacific - Latin America - Europe - Africa & Middle East ●IAHR Divisions have own structure and organise regional activities & conferences

IAHR Council President: Prof Peter Goodwin, University of Idaho, USA 4 Vice Presidents: Prof Arthur Mynett, UNESCO-IHE, Netherlands Prof Arturo Marcano, CVG EDELCA, Venezuela Prof James Ball, University of Technology Sydney, Australia Dr Angelos Findikakis, Bechtel National inc., USA 14 Council Members: 8 Elected, 4 Regional and 2 Co-opted Secretary General: Dr Ramon Gutierrez Serret, CEDEX, Spain Dr Jing Peng, IWHR, China Executive Director: Dr Christopher George, IAHR Secretariat, Spain

Who are we? IAHR Hydraulics Division (fluid mechanics, machinery, hydraulic structures, fluvial hydraulics, etc..) IAHR Hydro-Environment Division (ecohydraulics,ice research and engineering, hydroinformatics, water resources, groundwater, coastal, etc…) IPD Innovation & Professional Development Division (global water issues, professional development, excellence in engineering practice, etc…)

Our Members are leading organisations

Our Members are Leading Specialists

What do we do? We organise Conferences, workshops and short courses, recognised globally for professional status requirements We publish Monographs, Scientific Journals and Magazines We promote international collaboration with a strong regional perspective in close relation with key international organisations We connect scientists and engineers around the world to share knowledge and ideas We facilitate continuing education for practitioners

Putting Science into Practice ●Our magazines publish special issues on topics of relevance to practitioners: -Sea level rise -Climate change -Hydraulic infrastructure -Urban flood modelling -Panama Canal

Leading International Journals

Books: Monographs & Manuals

Global Challenges ●Risk Assessment (Data Management) ●Oil Spill Modelling

Challenges for our Community Security of clean water supply will become increasing global challenge over next 30 years  as population grows by 50% Growing global concern about water quality in rivers, estuaries, coastal and oceanic basins Growing concern about floods and droughts, groundwater and agriculture  food security New fields of interest emerging:- eco-system services, renewable energy; risk assessment
