WatIF is open to all graduate researchers whom identify as performing “water-related research”. Our strength is our academic, cultural, and experiential diversity.

Our goal for the attending delegates is highlighting engineering and science solutions as well as widen the range of research, outside science and engineering. Promoting humanities research, including elder knowledge, water policy, environmental law, and public health fields; is integral to achieving these goals.

Secondly, to broaden our international attendance, with a focus on Europe, Central & South America and Asia. Areas where water –related issues and solutions are typically multi-tiered, faceted between science and humanities; as part of creating connections and a water-network.
