ABOUT RWUA (India)
River Water User Association is a an organization, established as a mission under Institute of Rural Development and Research, working to keep the people closer by providing a platform, throughout the India to interact on water related issues and to undertake initiatives for Water Conservation, Protection and Management and its efficient use. It conducts Research, Development, Case studies, Projects, Training and demonstrations for promoting conservation, Treatment and Management of water bodies and Agriculture.
ABOUT THE CONFERENCE The 9th Annual Conference on Soil, Water, Plant and Ecosystem, covers a wide area of research and the advance technology interventions and applications in the field of Life Sciences and Natural systems.
The objective of RiverCon22 is to bring together, leading research scientists working in Life sciences related topics and stakeholders dealing with issues of public concern, such as soil degradation and consequences of climatic changes, Agriculture, Environmental Pollution, Water and Biodiversity. Technologies and engineering fields are merged with it for its advance applications for better policy and strategic outcome as per current needs.
Since the UN considers this year as year of ground water so the conference committee decided to pay more attention to Ground water by having a workshop and discussion to address various groundwater issues.
By involving multiple field and subject areas, our overall focus will be, “How can we manage our rivers and ecosystem services for its sustainable use?
Themes will includes a series of sessions with different formats They include selected oral communications of cutting-edge scientific results and different stakeholders’ inputs, posters, workshops and webinars including research, case studies and review articles.
