Water as a Critical Geological Resource
This 2-day, interdisciplinary meeting brings together geoscientists working across research, industry and governance to understand the critical role of water in Earth and built systems focusing on the following themes:
-Water as a commodity, resource, or tool – from diverse sources and reservoirs to evolving uses in the Energy Transition and other diverse industries, in addition to the social impacts of this
-Regulation, risk, and protection – impacts on communities and environments (natural, industrial and the built environment), and interdisciplinary engagement
-Tools and data-driven approaches – developing AI digital tools and best practice
-Education and skills pipeline – understanding engagement towards development of future skills
How to get involved
Abstracts are invited concerning any aspect of water as a geological resource. The deadline to submit abstracts
is the 27 April 2026.

9-11 Dec 2026 – Montego Bay, Jamaica
2nd Islands Water Congress
Resilient Islands: Securing Water for Sustainable Development in a Changing World. Hosted by the IWRA and the Water Resources Authority of Jamaica, the Islands Water Congress is a global event dedicated specifically to freshwater challenges and solutions in island contexts. It brings together island governments, practitioners, researchers, and communities to advance practical, island-specific approaches to freshwater management.
In doing so, the Congress amplifies island voices in the global water dialogue.
Building on the success of the 1st Islands Water Congress, held in the Faroe Islands in 2024, the 2nd Islands Water Congress will continue to strengthen collaboration and knowledge exchange across island contexts.
More information on participation and engagement will be available in the coming weeks. We look forward to seeing you in Jamaica!.Organised by IWRA.
