INTERNATIONAL WATER RESOURCES ASSOCIATION’S
1st ISLANDS WATER CONGRESS
hosted by the FAROESE GEOLOGICAL SURVEY (Jarðfeingi)
4-6 SEPTEMBER 2024 – FAROE ISLANDS
Welcome to the International Water Resources Association’s (IWRA) 1st Islands Water Congress, a high-level global event organised in collaboration
with a different island host every two years. For the first edition, we have partnered with the Faroese Geological Survey (Jarðfeingi)
and we will be gathering in Tórshavn from the 4th to 6th September 2024.
The theme of the first edition will be “Freshwater and Islands: Administration, Collaboration and Innovation“
The Congress focuses on freshwater resources in island contexts
By organising a Congress every two years on different islands, IWRA will develop a body of learning that will
boost freshwater opportunities and advance solutions to freshwater challenges.
For any questions/concerns, please reach out to islands.congress@iwra.org
We look forward to seeing you at the Islands Water Congress in September 2024!
