2025 Iowa Water Conference

Join us for the 19th annual Iowa Water Conference! The overarching conference theme is “Life Depends on Water. Water Depends on You.” As the Iowa Water Center celebrates its 60-year anniversary, we contemplate the progress made, as well as the goals that have been so far, out of reach. As water professionals and community members, we all play a part in protecting our waters. Creating a resilient water cycle is critical and relies on a systems approach, recognizing the connection between water, soil, and all living things.

Focus areas for the 2025 conference:

  • Water and Agriculture

  • Water and Health

  • Stormwater/Urban Water

  • Water Quantity

  • Water Science Communication

  • Water and Recreation

The Iowa Water Conference is a unique opportunity for water, climate, urban, agriculture, and natural resource professionals to collaborate and exchange ideas. Join us in Ankeny in September 2025 as we explore one of Iowa’s most valuable natural resources.

IIHR will be hosting a booth at the conference, so stop by to learn more about our hydrologic work.
