IAH’s mission, as a professional association, is to further the understanding, wise use and protection of groundwater resources throughout the world. This area includes links to a variety of courses, training and events. It also provides leads and resources concerning the basic and relatively unchanging principles of hydrogeology right through to highly-specialist scientific investigations of topical and complex subjects. IAH’s aim is to encourage and harness such knowledge, to stimulate further research, and to help like-minded professionals network, learn and share.
