As a flagship initiative of IHP IX (2022-2029) which puts science to action for a Water Secure World, FRIEND-Water contributes to research on: regional water resources, hydrological extremes (drought and floods), climate resilient water adaption, as well as water education and capacity building. Every four years, a world conference is held to bring together all the scientists involved to discuss the challenges of research on these issues. The new edition will take place from 5 to 10 June 2023 in Dakar, at the University of Cheikh Anta Diop.
