24-27 Sep 2023 – Marsa Alam Egypt
6-th International Symposium & Field Workshop Living with Environmental Challenges in the Coastal Zones
Living with Environmental Challenges in the Coastal Zones. Coastal zones around the world are under increasing threat of freshwater scarcity, due to both over-exploitation of groundwater resources and climatic changes. The rising demand for freshwater in coastal areas and small oceanic islands, combined with sea level rise and longer dry periods, could cause collapse situations, inducers of serious humanitarian crises. This session seeks to highlight the importance of coastal aquifers management in a context of climate change, considering the increasing demand due economic reasons, the over-exploration of water resources, especially in arid regions, and groundwater salinization processes.
Organised by The Egyptian Society of Environmental Change.

1-4 Oct 2023 – Saskatoon, Canada
GeoSaskatoon2023
The Saskatoon Geotechnical Group, the North Saskatchewan Section of the Canadian Geotechnical Society (CGS) is delighted to announce GeoSaskatoon2023 to be held at the TCU Place Convention Centre in Saskatoon, Oct 1-4, 2023.
The conference will proceed with the participation of Partner Organisations, the International Geosynthetics Society – North America (IGS-NA) and the International Association of Hydrogeologists – Canadian National Chapter (IAH-CNC).
Being held in the “City of Bridges” in the beautiful valley of the South Saskatchewan River, the theme of the conference is “bridging”. Bridging research & practice, bridging theory & experience, and above all, bridging different areas of practice. Geotechnical practice is often characterized as being distinct in the separate sectors of Infrastructure and Resources, however so many lessons can be learned, and experiences shared when we focus on the similarities, differences, and synergies in different areas of geotechnical, geosynthetics and hydrogeological practice.
Join Colleagues from across North America Oct 1-4, 2023, to share experiences, opportunities, and ideas, to renew old friendships and make new ones, and yes, to enjoy some Saskatoon berry pie!. -

16-18 Oct 2023 – Dresden, Germany
International Riverbank Filtration Conference – REGISTRATION OPEN & ABSTRACT SUBMISSION EXTENDED TO 31 AUGUST 2023!
Bank filtration / riverbank filtration (BF/RBF) is an element of managed aquifer recharge and has been used by riverside communities for many decades as a natural water treatment process. With a growing and conscious use worldwide, RBF will become more important to safeguard future water supplies for drinking, irrigation and industries. The conference marks the return of a platform after two decades to showcase worldwide operational experience and research and to increase the level of awareness on RBF. The conference offers two days of oral and poster presentations on 16 and 17 October and an excursion to RBF schemes on 18 October. Everyone interested in RBF – young as well as experienced engineers, students, researchers, scientists, project managers, decision makers are welcome to participate. Add your contribution to the field of RBF and join experts from Austria, Brazil, China, Egypt, Finland, Germany, India, the Netherlands, Poland, South Korea, Vietnam and more countries and exchange experiences with them.
Deadline for abstract submission: 31 August 2023. Submit your abstract (free format) by email to rbfconf@htw-dresden.de.
Registration is open! Be an early bird and register by 31 August 2023 at https://www.htw-dresden.de/rbfconf.Price: Registration by/before 31 August 2023: 320 Euro, or for students and PhD researchers 160 Euro.

23-25 Nov 2023 – Laayoune, Morocco
The 4th International Conference GIRE3D: Participatory and Integrated Management of Water Resources in Arid Zones
Hydrogeology. Arid regions are known for their limited water resource potential. The sustainable management of water resources in these areas is a permanent challenge, due to the growing demand, linked to population growth coupled with the negative impacts of climate change.
The GIRE3D 4th edition 2023 is an opportunity for all water stakeholders to exchange methodologies adapted to the exploitation and management of water in such contexts. This edition will allow, among other things, to promote scientific research in consultation with professionals in the water sector and to create a platform for debate and exchange of experiences between the various national and international stakeholders on the theme of water in arid zones.Organised by The Moroccan Chapter of the IAH.
