It provide a platform for the world irrigation community and interested development professionals to find solutions to problems plaguing the irrigated agriculture\, in time of depleting freshwater resources as a result of global warming and climate change. \nICID provides a unique platform for multi-stakeholder in World Irrigation Forum (WIF) for sharing and learning by engaging in issues of interest at global level. WIF also gathers a wide range of experts from various fields to discuss important issues highlighted. \nThe World Irrigation Forum stimulates and promotes multi- disciplinary discussions towards sustainable solution to water management in agriculture through: \n•Exchange of latest irrigation and drainage policies\, practices\, innovations and technologies; \n•Exploring and formulating concrete inter-disciplinary proposals; \n•Development of liaison/ collaboration among various national / international institutions/ organizations/ private sector working for irrigated agriculture; and \n•Advocacy for political commitments. \n\nThe International Executive Council (IEC)\, the highest decision-making body of ICID\, is vested with the management of the affairs of ICID. IEC meets every year to transact business of administrative and technical in nature. All technical workbodies of ICID meet prior to the Council meeting and these meetings are termed as Pre-Council meetings. \nAnnual IEC meeting is always preceded by the annual meeting of various technical working group/ task teams\, and meetings of various workbodies such as PCSO\, PCTA\, PFC etc. \nIEC related meetings are also preceded by ICID triennial Congresses\, newly conceptualized World Irrigation Forums\, and Regional Conferences in a three-year cycle. This dual purpose approach while on one side helps ICID meet its objectives\, it also provides opportunity to address specific global technical issues\, regional issues and provides platform to interact with its stakeholders and have a better outreach to disseminate its messages and achieve its mission and goals.

SUMMARY:IAHR 2019 Congress
DESCRIPTION:Global interest in water has increased rapidly in recent years. Many water issues are high on the political agenda\, whether it concerns the lack of access to safe water and sanitation or the increase in water‐related disasters due to floods and droughts. \nThis challenge must be addressed by management and policy decisions informed by science and engineering knowledge that is relevant\, credible\, legitimate and delivered in a timely manner. Therefore the discipline of hydro-environment engineering and research is more important than ever. The 38th IAHR World Congress will bring together the key players in the sector from around the globe in “Water – Connecting the World“\, from 1-6 September 2019 in Panama.

SUMMARY:Singapore International Water Week Spotlight
DESCRIPTION:Held in between the main SIWW editions\, the SIWW Spotlight series are exclusive by-invitation events to continue the dialogue from SIWW and foster ongoing exchanges on pressing challenges faced by the water sector worldwide. \nHappening on 6 and 7 June\, SIWW Spotlight 2019 will be focused on industrial water solutions and is held in partnership with the Ecosperity Week. \nWater is critical for industries as a product and as a component in processes and supply chain\, and yet has many competing uses. Technologies are readily available to help businesses reduce the risks water pose to their bottom lines by reducing their water use\, replacing water from alternative sources and reclaiming used water. \nHowever\, not enough is being done to lower industrial water demand. Companies must now get their water management approach and financing right in order to take advantage of the benefits and scalability of technologies to reduce their risk and reliance on water. \nSIWW Spotlight 2019 will look into best practices in: \n\nMaking Water a Priority in Your Boardroom– Getting senior management to recognise the importance of water.\nFraming it Right- Get a head start by putting in place the right framework and institutionalise your water management practices.\nTapping Technologies– Discover advanced technologies to lower water consumption in your company.\nValuing the Precious- Water is too often considered a cheap and disposable resource. By valuing it rightly\, businesses and the environment can reap substantive benefits.

SUMMARY:UNESCO International Water Conference
DESCRIPTION:The UNESCO International Water Conference aims to advance sustainable water security and peace by leveraging intersectoral management of water resources. \nLooking from space\, satellite imagery shows the abundant masses of water that characterize the Earth. Yet\, less than 1% account for usable fresh water. \nAlmost all human activities depend on water\, be it food production\, energy generation\, industry or even recreation. Water management and governance affect the health of humans and ecosystems\, and reflect the conditions of gender equality\, education and cultural diversity of a region. Water resources are critical to sustainable development and poverty reduction. \nOnce more\, UNESCO brings together its actors and partners to share innovative solutions to contemporary challenges. Thanks to its experience and expertise in the fields of Education\, Sciences (both natural\, and social and human sciences)\, Culture and Communication\, UNESCO contributes through holistic\, sustainable approaches to resolve issues impacting the governance and management of water. \nThe UNESCO International Water Conference aims to advance sustainable water security and peace by leveraging intersectoral management of water resources. \nObjectives of the conference: \n– Bring everyone around the table to discuss intersectoral approaches to the governance and management of water resources. \n– Launch a Call for Action to foster\, embrace\, and adopt intersectoral water management. \n– Share good practices enabling participation\, transparency and information-sharing. \n– Give evidence of the importance of interdisciplinarity and the integration of sciences to support Member States in reaching the goals of the water-related international agendas.

SUMMARY:Global Water Summit
DESCRIPTION:On April 8th – 10th 2019 the Global Water Summit returns to London. This year is on Disruptive Designs. Disruption creates enormous opportunities as well as obstacles\, and it offers real solutions to previously intractable problems. While barriers to trade grab the headlines\, huge new markets are opening up in an unprecedented fashion. In the global water sector the story is a refreshing one of collaboration and consolidation rather than fragmentation and isolationism. \nWhat the leaders of the water sector need to make the most of this new volatility is a clear global view and the right contacts. How are current trends going to play out\, and how will it affect supply chains\, revenue streams and business relationships? Where are the new opportunities\, and who are the people you need to talk to? Where is the “fake news”?

SUMMARY:CDP’s Global Water Forum
DESCRIPTION:CDP’s Global Water Forum opens its invitation for its online Forum on March 22nd to celebrate World Water Day. The event will be recorded and distributed to all registrants. \nWater smart economies: Worsening water security is a material risk for the global economy and the private sector faces financial and supply risks that can no longer be ignored. \nAlthough action is being taken\, incremental changes are insufficient to deal with the scale of the challenge.

In support of this CDP will be providing insight into the latest trends in corporate water stewardship from CDP’s 2018 Global Water Report. \nThe time for debating the materiality of water security issues is over. The time for action is now. \nConfirmed speakers: \n\nCate Lamb\, Director of Water Security\, CDP\nPaul Simpson\, CEO\, CDP\nWilhem Mohn\, Head of Sustainability Initiatives\, Ownership Strategies at Norges Bank Investment\n\nAdditional speakers and full agenda will be announced ahead of the event. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister here
