Groundwater Forum – World Water Congress

The IWA World Water Congress & Exhibition Groundwater Forum aims to promote groundwater as a critical resource to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals, and critically, safe drinking water for all. The Forum will provide examples from around the globe on the management of groundwater quantity and quality. Invited speakers will highlight challenges and solutions for sustainable groundwater exploitation. In three sessions, we will explore and facilitate participant discussions on groundwater topics such as management and cooperation around scarce resources and competing interests, quantifying groundwater sustainability, risk assessment of emerging pollutants, sharing of groundwater data and more.
