Established by the International Association for Hydro-Environment Engineering and Research (IAHR), IAHR Awards recognise the most important achievements in the hydro-environmental science and engineering field within several categories, and reward those individuals, organisations, and companies in the hydro-environment sector that are moving engineering and research forward through achievement or published papers.
The following IAHR Global Awards pay tribute to inspiring members remembered for their pioneering research contributions and guiding efforts to make the association more relevant and are currently open for nomination.
Nominating a candidate allows the hydro-environment sector to give due recognition and to encourage excellence in engineering research and practice. We welcome nominations for individuals, organisations, and companies from all parts of the world and strongly encourage the nomination of women candidates.
Nomination period extended until Monday 13 February 2023
