IDA Seville Summit on Water and Climate Change

15-18 October 2023, Seville, Spain

Coinciding with the 50th-anniversary celebration of the International Desalination Association, the IDA Seville Summit on Water and Climate Change will take place on 15-18 October 2023 in the spectacular setting of Seville, Spain. IDA is an NGO with recognized consultative status by the United Nations ECOSOC and a member of the UN Special Framework for Water Scarcity in Agriculture (WASAG) hosted by the UN FAO Land and Water Division. The IDA promotes unconventional water resource solutions to offset water scarcity and enhance resilience, long- term water security, and adaptation to climate change.

The IDA Seville Summit will focus on adaptation to climate change and address synergies between mitigation and adaptation, integrating unconventional water resources to ensure long-term water security, decarbonizing the water sector, the need for environmental stewardship, integrated water resource management, and solutions to food security, industry, and municipal water needs. 

Critical discussions will include the following topics;

How can we contribute to building a roadmap for climate change adaptation with a water resource management transition?

How to unlock institutional, technological, and financial lock-ins for meaningful progress toward diversifying water supply sources?

If adaptation and circularity are rational behaviors, do they not happen spontaneously? Why are successful examples hard to scale up?

The Summit will combine high-level thematic sessions and a peer-reviewed technical program.

Due to medical reasons, the Be Water Positive Sailing Team made the difficult decision to withdraw from racing in the Transat Jacques. We wish Skipper Scott Sawyer a speedy recovery.
