ABOUT

ICWRAE is an international scientific conference held every two years. It is organized by King Saud University (KSU); the Prince Sultan Institute for Environmental, Water and Desert Research; the Prince Sultan Bin Abdulaziz International Prize for Water (PSIPW); the Prince Sultan Bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud Foundation; and the Saudi Ministry of the Environment, Water, and Agriculture.

Due to COVID-19, this year’s special virtual edition included invited speakers only, with a focus on PSIPW winners from the 1st Award (2004) until the 9th Award (2020).

Participation in conference attendance was welcome from all interested parties around the world. All lectures were recorded and are currently available on this website.
