Submit your abstract for the 8th IAHR Europe Congress by 30 October
The 8th IAHR Europe Congress will be held in Lisbon, Portugal, from 4 to 7 June 2024. Its central theme is Water-Across Boundaries, covering aquifers, rivers, reservoirs and dams, estuaries, coasts and ports, urban water, hydroinformatics and experimental methods, climate change and risk mitigation and governance and water resources management.
Submit your abstract and/or special session by 30 October! Deadline extended
The deadline for abstract and special sessions submission has been extended to 30 October!
>> Access the abstract template and guidelines for abstract submission
Special sessions will be organised in parallel to the tradicional theme sessions, and directly organised by conveners, who will be in charge of proposing themes, inviting speakers and managing abstracts.
