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.

5 Oct - 25 Nov 2026 – Vetralla (VT) Italy
INTRODUCTION TO APPLIED GROUNDWATER TRANSPORT MODELING
Groundwater transport modelling. The training course Introduction to Applied Groundwater Transport Modeling will take place at the SYMPLE school in Vetralla, Italy, with the option of participating online. The course is divided into three parts: the first is theoretical and entirely conducted online, the second part is a blend of online and on-site attendance, emphasizing practical applications of flow and transport models. A final session, focused on a TCE remediation project, will commence on-site and continue online later on.
The course will cover essential practical criteria necessary for constructing analytical and numerical models. This includes topics like understanding the advection-dispersion equation, defining transport parameters, and selecting the appropriate solver, all illustrated through case studies. Practical applications using MT3DMS, MT3D-USGS and the variable density code SEAWAT will be demonstrated through explanatory lectures and computer exercises facilitated by the proprietary GUI Groundwater Vistas 8.
Each participant will have access to Groundwater Vistas for a duration of 2 months. To ensure accessibility and flexibility, all course sessions, whether conducted online or on-site, will be recorded. These recordings will be uploaded to our e-learning platform, allowing participants to review the material at their convenience.Price: 800 euro
Organised by SYMPLE SRL.

15-17 Oct 2026 – Prague
International Conference on Climate Change, Sustainability & Renewable Energy
ClimateEnergy2026 is more than a conference — it’s a global stage for ideas, technologies, and policies shaping the future of our planet.
From October 15–17, 2026, in Prague, Czech Republic, the International Conference on Climate Change, Sustainability & Renewable Energy will bring together scientists, innovators, policymakers, entrepreneurs, and activists to address the world’s most urgent climate challenges and accelerate the transition toward a net-zero, resilient, and equitable world.
Built around three guiding pillars — Climate Change as the Challenge, Sustainability as the Framework, and Renewable Energy as the Solution — the conference explores critical priorities including net-zero strategies, climate finance, just transitions, hydrogen economy, AI for sustainability, carbon removal, and climate justice.
Beyond inspiring keynotes and scientific sessions, ClimateEnergy2026 offers interactive and action-oriented formats such as climate dialogues, innovation hackathons, startup pitch zones, and youth-led forums, transforming ideas into collaboration and measurable impact.
Whether you are a researcher, industry leader, policymaker, or changemaker, this is where collaboration meets purpose. At Creovate Conferences, we don’t just host events — we build ecosystems that advance science, scale innovation, and accelerate global sustainability goals.
Join us in Prague — and be part of the movement shaping the future of our planet.Price: $699

27-28 Oct 2026 – Burlington House, London, UK & Online
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.

38th International Geological Congress
Geosciences for Humanity. The International Geological Congress (IGC) is the premier conference for the advancement of global Earth Science. It takes place every four years in a major city, attracting over 6,000 geoscientists from across the globe - akin to hosting the Olympics for Earth Sciences. In 2024, Canada won the bid host the 38th IGC, IGC 2028, in Calgary in 2028. The Scientific Program is inspired by the congress tagline “Geosciences for Humanity”.
The history of the Earth, from its infancy 4.6 billion years ago to the present day, is captured across The Americas. Against this backdrop, we will explore our human environment, climate drivers, resources essential for modern-day life, mitigation of natural disasters, corporate social responsibilities and Indigenous reconciliation.
