IAH 2008 Toyoma: Integrating Groundwater Science and Human Well-Being
The XXXVI Congress of the International Association of Hydrogeologists (IAH) in Toyama, Japan will be hosted by the Japanese IAH Chapter. The Congress will address issues of human well-being which depend upon the study and understanding of groundwater science. Human security, eco-security, environmental security or food security, especially under climate change, are becoming major concerns in the world. Groundwater development and management are one of the key factors to ensure a sustainable society and preserve human well-being. The XXXVI IAH Congress will promote scientific understanding of groundwater and related subjects through discussions and knowledge exchange. UNESCO-IHP will co-convene two sessions, on "Groundwater and Natural/Man Induced Disasters" and on "Groundwater under Climate Change/Climate Change Impacts on Groundwater Resources".
