IWRM Karlsruhe
Germany
Emerging topic: Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM)
Already today more than 2 billion people in over 40 countries are affected by water scarcity.
Therefore, integrated water resource management (IWRM) is the essential instrument to optimise water usage, taking the requirements of the society and the economy into account. Because of the great importance of the topic the IWRM Karlsruhe will be held, for the first time, in the Karlsruhe Convention Center. The convention, which will be accompanied by an exhibition, aims to bundle the international know-how and hands-on expertise and to stimulate the exploitation of this knowledge.
IWRM Karlsruhe focuses in particular on water management in the agricultural domain, because today agriculture accounts for approximately two-thirds of total water consumption worldwide.
The accompanying exhibition at IWRM Karlsruhe offers an additional opportunity to examine the functionality of IWRM models and systems directly with suppliers and service providers.
