1-4 Jul 2026 – Barcelona (Spain)
Congreso Ibérico de Aguas Subterráneas
Iberic meeting of the Spanish and Portuguese IAH National Chapters. The Spanish Chapter of the International Association of Hydrogeologists (IAH-GE) is pleased to invite you to a new edition of the Iberian Congress on Groundwater (CIAS2026), which will be held in the city of Barcelona on 1, 2, 3 and 4 July 2026.
This edition is organised thanks to the joint efforts of the University of Barcelona and the Institute of Environmental Assessment and Water Research (IDAEA-CSIC). The Congress will take place at the Faculty of Earth Sciences of the University of Barcelona.
CIAS2026 continues a long-standing series of congresses aimed at highlighting the crucial role of hydrogeology within the overall hydrological cycle. Its main objective is to foster interaction among scientists, technicians, water managers, students and water professionals in general, encouraging the exchange of knowledge, experiences and shared challenges related to the study and sustainable management of groundwater.
The IAH-GE, as the Spanish representative of the International Association of Hydrogeologists promotes activities that strengthen knowledge transfer and technical and scientific debate. To this end, it organises meetings, publishes monographs and the journal Hydrogeology Journal, and encourages collective reflection through workshops, round tables and congresses such as CIAS2026. In this edition, the Portuguese Chapter of the IAH will also actively collaborate in the organisation of the Congress, reinforcing its Iberian and cross-border character.
Located on the Mediterranean coast and taking place in the summer season, CIAS2026 will also provide an excellent opportunity to enjoy the natural and cultural surroundings of Barcelona. We aim for this Congress to be not only a forum for knowledge, but also a space for inspiration and synergy.
For this edition, agreements will be established with various accommodation providers in the city to ensure that all those who usually attend IAH-GE congresses are able to come to Barcelona.Price: 175 € - 600 €
Organised by Spanish Chapter IAH.

14-15 Sep 2026 – Berlin, Germany
4th International Summit on Earthscience, Civil and Environmental Engineering
Civil and Environmental Engineering. The 4th International Summit on Earth science, Civil and Environment Engineering will take place in Berlin, Germany on September 14–15, 2026, gathering researchers, engineers, policymakers, and industry leaders to accelerate resilient infrastructure and environmental solutions.
Overview
The summit will be a cross sector platform for Earth system science, civil and structural engineering, and environmental technologies, designed to translate cutting edge research into scalable projects and policy impact, with sessions linking geoscience evidence, engineered interventions, and sustainability outcomes for cities and regions.
Program highlights
Keynotes from global pioneers, interactive workshops, technical symposia, and a juried poster forum will showcase advances from geohazard monitoring to low carbon materials and circular construction. Hands on labs and problem solving roundtables will target implementation pathways tied to SDG priorities and climate neutral urban development. Curated networking will link early career researchers with mentors across academia, government, and industry for collaboration and career growth.
Core themes
• Earth Systems and Geohazards: forecasting, early warning, and risk communication for earthquakes, landslides, floods, and coastal change.
• Sustainable Materials and Construction: low carbon cement, steel alternatives, reuse, and digital fabrication for circularity.
• Smart, Climate Neutral Cities: energy systems, mobility, district heating, and nature based solutions aligned with city level targets.
• Water, Climate, and Environmental Quality: urban hydrology, watershed restoration, contamination control, and data driven monitoring.
• Geospatial Intelligence and AI: remote sensing, digital twins, and decision support for planning and emergency management.
Who can attend
• Earth and environmental scientists advancing observation, modeling, and mitigation strategies.
We look forward to welcoming you to Berlin in 2026 for an unforgettable convergence of ideas and action.

14-18 Sep 2026 – Budapest Congress Center, Budapest, Hungary
IAH 2026 – The 53rd World Groundwater Congress
Groundwater – A Key Multi-Resource. We are delighted to invite you to the 53rd World Groundwater Congress of the International Association of Hydrogeologists, taking place from 14 to 18 September 2026. This prestigious event returns to Hungary after half a century, and we are proud to welcome you again to the beautiful city of Budapest. This city is connected to water in many ways. The Danube River flows majestically through the heart of Budapest, providing drinking water for 1.8 million people through the efficient riverbank filtration technology. Budapest is also known as the city of spas, because there is no other place in the world with so many natural hot springs and spas offering relaxing and therapeutic experiences. The naturally discharging thermal waters have shaped the city's karst landscape, creating unique hypogenic caves and mineral formations. Due to the favorable natural conditions, geothermal energy exploration gains importance in the area in response to the growing global demand for sustainable energy solutions. The topics of the conference highlight the diverse and critical roles that groundwater plays in environmental sustainability, resource management, and societal well-being. Thus, we aim to provide a platform for leading experts, researchers, and professionals from around the globe to engage in discussions and explore the multifaceted role of groundwater in our world.
Join us in Budapest for an unforgettable experience! We will foster a collaborative environment in which we can all learn and drive forward the field of groundwater resources.Organised by Hungarian National Chapter of IAH.
