IWRA, the Congress International Scientific Committee (ISC), and the Secretariat of Water and Energy Resources of the State of Pernambuco, Brazil (SRHE), are pleased to invite interested participants to the XIVth Congress in Porto de Galinhas, near the city of Recife. Core support for the Congress is provided by IDRC, Canada’s International Development Research Centre, which supports research in developing countries to promote growth and development. The result is innovative, lasting local solutions that aim to bring choice and change to those who need it most.

The XIV Congress will address Adaptive Water Management: Looking to the Future. The ISC, composed of members from regional and international bodies, universities and research organizations, has planned four central themes:

1) adaptive water management
2) water resources and global change
3) governance and water law
4) knowledge systems.

Plenary sessions and keynote speakers will set the broader context to frame individual, more detailed sessions.
