Dear IAHS Officers, we hope this message finds you well. 

As you know, the Digital Water Globe (DWG) is a vital IAHS initiative designed to enhance collaborative research within IAHS and across the broader hydrological community. One of the key benefits of the DWG is that it offers an accessible overview of the IAHS family, acting as our "business card" for those new to our community who wish to learn more about who we are.

For the DWG to fulfil its purpose effectively, it is crucial that all IAHS officers upload their personal profiles. Unfortunately, recent monitoring has shown that only 30% of officers have completed this step. Without broader participation, launching new DWG-related initiatives may prove counterproductive.

Creating your profile is quick and straightforward, taking just five minutes. To support you, you will find a comprehensive set of user manuals on our website which will guide you through the process. While the platform is intuitive, this document should answer any questions you may have.

We kindly ask that you complete your profile by 30^th March to help ensure the DWG becomes a valuable and impactful resource for the entire hydrological community.

Your participation is vital to the DWG's success, and we greatly appreciate your time and effort in supporting this initiative. Should you have any questions or require further assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Thank you for your commitment to advancing hydrological science.
