IAHS has proudly and successfully coordinated two Scientific Decades, which, amongst other things, set the research agenda worldwide through collaborative forces. The third Scientific Decade 2023–2032 of IAHS launches a topic for collaborative efforts in hydrological sciences: HELPING, created through a participatory community process and by applying strategic planning. The third IAHS Scientific Decade is dedicated to local solutions under the global water crisis. The name HELPING, stands for Hydrology Engaging Local People IN one Global world. The HELPING Theme and Working Groups are now available for you to view and join. If you're curious about the IAHS Scientific Decades and want to learn more, don't hesitate to get in touch with us. Our team is passionate about what we do, and we'd love to share the details with you. Just drop us an email at info@iahs.co.uk, and let's embark on this scientific journey together. Your quest for knowledge starts here!
The XIIth IAHS Scientific Assembly will take place 5-10 October 2025 in Roorkee, India. Preparation is continuing at full speed. The Scientific Assembly will be jointly organised by the Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee, in coordination with the National Institute of Hydrology Roorkee, Irrigation Research Institute Roorkee and CBRI–Central Building Research Institute (CBRI) Roorkee, four leading institutions in the field of water resources in India. The Assembly will experiment with an innovative new format aiming to underline the importance of the discipline of Hydrology and to increase the visibility of the next generation of hydrologists.

The IAHS Digital Water Globe (DWG) is an innovative tool specially designed for, and by, IAHS members. Here you can give visibility to (un)published results, research sites and find peers for collaborating around the world. The Digital Water Globe will exploit the potential of an innovative digital arena for IAHS-community building, data/knowledge exchange and science communication in action. We invite you to view and contribute to the Digital Water Globe!
