On Saturday, 17th May, the ICOLD Technical Committees Workshops will be held. They aim to present and discuss the content of new work for technical committees in their start-up phase or to present the results of technical committees at the end of their mission (typically the publication of a Technical Bulletin). The list of workshops has been established below in coordination with the chairs of the technical committees.

Workshop on Levee news from around the world: presentations from TC members about levees, flood defences and flood events
Until the writing of the International Levee Handbook and the creation of the EurCOLD WG on levees and of the ICOLD TC on Levees, there was no international collaboration on levee issues. One of the objectives of the TC defined in its terms of reference is to collect and share information on levees such as characteristics, policies and best practices for design, construction, operation, maintenance and ongoing management in different countries. During this workshop members from different countries will pressent news from their respective country. The detailed list of presentations is in preparation and is waiting feedback from members. `)">More |
