The First Scientific Conference on Integrated Water Resources Management: Challenges and Solutions (IWRM-2026)
7/4/2026 - 8/4/2026

Welcome Message:
Dear Researchers, Policymakers, Practitioners, and Water Security Experts,
It is my great pleasure to welcome you to The First Scientific Conference on Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM): Challenges and Solutions.
This event is dedicated to tackling the critical issue of sustainable and equitable water resource management, especially in highly stressed regions like Taiz and beyond. Water is the foundation of life and stability, and we must collectively rise to meet the escalating threats of climate change, pollution, and rapid growth. This conference is a vital call to action and a hub for practical, collective solutions.
Over the next few days, through dynamic discussions and pioneering research, you will have the opportunity to:
• Diagnose water crises and root causes (Topic 1).
• Harness successful global IWRM strategies (Topic 2).
• Advance understanding of pollution and climate impacts (Topics 3 & 4).
• Shape future IWRM policies and effective practices (Topic 5).
This is where knowledge transforms into impactful water action. Your expertise—whether in science, policy, engineering, or advocacy—is indispensable.
Join us in shaping the future of water management. The path to water security starts here.
I look forward to welcoming you and seeing the collaborations that emerge.
Thank you,
Prof Dr. Mahyoub Al-Buhairi
Dean of Faculty of Applied Sciences
