Environmental & Water Resources Institute (EWRI) 2024 World Environmental & Water Resources Congress

Climate change is impacting society and the natural and built environment. Migration of people away from highly impacted areas toward more climate-resilient locations has already started. Design methods and parameters that were good enough in the past may not serve society well as we move into the future. Attend the 2024 EWRI Congress to join with colleagues in developing new strategies to protect the environment and manage our water resources in a way appropriate to the new world we live in.
