SUMMARY:88th ICOLD Annual Meeting & Symposium
DESCRIPTION:India has built 5334 dams which includes Bhakra\, Tehri\, Sardar Sarovar and many more mega projects. 437 large dams are under construction. \nThe 88th ICOLD Annual Meeting & Symposium will provide an excellent platform of exchange in the fields of Energy & Water Resources Development and Management. \nThe Indian National Committee on Large Dam (INCOLD) has prepared an excellent program in an exciting venue\, with a Symposium on the theme ‘Sustainable Development of Dams and River Basins’ and a Technical Tour which will include the famous Taj Mahal and its incredible water devices. \nIndia is a country where 50000 MW of hydropower potential developed\, but 100000 MW are waiting to be developed.  Dam Rehabilitation Improvement Programme (DRIP) and National Hydrology Project (NHP- 175 Million dollars) being funded by the World Bank is being implemented in almost all the States (28 nos.).  The approved cost of DRIP Phase-II & III (687 projects)  amounting to US$ M 1600. It is therefore a land of opportunity for dam professionals. \nFurther\, an extensive trade exhibition opportunity is available to dam/hydropower companies\, instrument manufactures\, consultants\, contractors and other Govt. as well as private agencies involved with the development of dam/ hydropower engineering in difference countries\, to display their capabilities and expertise besides interactions with the decision makers\, and also to find joint ventures to participate in the dam rehabilitation works and also in the development of dam/hydropower engineering projects in India. \nWith around 1500 participants from 100 countries\, it will be a unique occasion to meet high level dam experts and decision makers from that very promising part of the world.

SUMMARY:UNESCO International Conference on "Water\, Megacities and Global Change"
DESCRIPTION:Bringing together scientists\, operators\, policy makers and civil society to address water security and global challenges in Megacities\nParis\, New York\, Beijing\, Mumbai\, Tokyo\, Buenos Aires\, Mexico\, Lagos… all Megacities – urban centers which accommodate more than 10 million inhabitants – are facing “mega”-challenges related to providing water services for their inhabitants\, while managing their environment. Climate change effects of intensifying magnitude and global challenges such as sea level rise\, increasing temperatures or urbanization\, threaten these cities. Now\, there is a need for action to achieve resilient cities. \nA transversal and multidimensional solution is proposed\, based on the collaboration among scientists who advance knowledge\, operators (in both the public and private sectors) who innovate technically and socio-politically\, and local politicians who can support new\, fairer and more efficient models of water governance\, in constant interaction with civil society. \nThe Second International Conference on “Water\, Megacities and Global Change” (EauMega 2020)\, will take place from 1 to 4 December 2020 at UNESCO Headquarters in Paris\, to bring all these actors together\, 5 years after its first edition\, also known as EauMega 2015. \n\nCall for papers\nDeadline: 29 February 2020\n\nObjectives of the conference\n\nProduce a scientific and technical overview of water management in Megacities in order to identify and update the most important issues\,\nStrengthen the dialogue between science and policy actors\, and\nOfficially launch the Megacities Alliance for Water and Climate (MAWAC).\nMAWAC aims to provide a platform for Megacities to share their experiences and challenges\, propose solutions\, and to obtain access to technical and financial support for programmes and projects\, enabling them to successfully overcome the challenges of climate change.
