To be held face-to-face in Sydney in 2022, the Australian Water Association and International Water Association Young Water Professionals Conference will bring together tomorrow’s leaders to explore how they can leave their mark on our Water Future.

In a rapidly evolving world, innovative solutions are needed to solve the challenges faced by the local and international water industry. As future water leaders, we all have a role to play in shaping the way forward, as we inherit this industry.
 
This is a fantastic opportunity for Young Water Professionals to showcase their contributions to the water sector, plan for its future and inspire change among industry leaders and their peers.

The two day conference features over 30 presentations and 8 interactive workshop and panel sessions, complemented by social functions including a Conference Dinner, Amazing Race and informal networking opportunities. Following the Conference are two optional Site Tours that can be added to a Conference registration.
