Dear colleagues and friends of the Transboundary Aquifers Commission,
We have the pleasure to invite you to the upcoming IAH Congress in Davos, Switzerland, 8-13 September 2024. We have organized the session: On effective transboundary groundwater areas for shared aquifer management
At the closing ceremony of IAH 49 held in China, the groundwater torch was passed to South Africa to host IAH 50. We congratulate the conference organisers on hosting a successful conference under the trying circumstances posed by the Covid-19 pandemic.
