Event Date
LuWQ2025 is an international and interdisciplinary conference on the cutting edge of science, management and policy in order to minimize the effects of agriculture and land use on the quality of groundwater and surface waters.
Objectives of the conference are:
- to provide a forum for exchange of scientific knowledge and research to better understand ’systems function’, modelling and uncertainty;
- to discuss the entire policy cycle for water quality improvement;
- to intensify contacts, facilitate discussion and build capacity (a) between scientists in the fields of soil/water, agriculture, social sciences, ecology and economy, and (b) between scientists, water managers and policy makers.
To give you a feeling for the essence of Land Use and Water Quality (LuWQ) conferences… The key strength of the conference is twofold. On the one hand, LuWQ has a well-defined narrow focus on ‘agriculture and water quality’. On the other hand, the conference is broadly oriented with regard to the various professional disciplines related to the conference topics. Based on the experience from previous Land use and Water Quality editions, it is the diversity in professional background of participants which results in a multi-faceted conference program. Consequently, LUWQ offers sessions on a broad variety of topics, all of them however dedicated exclusively to agriculture and water quality.
