It is an ‘International conference on water, environment, energy and society’ where around 100 delegates from 20 countries will present papers.

The conference aims to share research experience from around the world. The conference will be conducted in 16 parallel sessions. Presentation and deliberation will be in six categories. Each category will have specialist key note speakers. There are total 30 keynote speakers.
