This Event Starts in:
Water: The Blood of the Earth
Over the last century, water usage is growing at twice the rate of population increase. The rapidly accelerating pressures on this resource arising from constant changing quality and availability of freshwater exposes all of us to risks and challenges.
Ensuring a safe and adequate supply of water has always been a top priority for countries around the world. Since water is a finite resource, we must ensure that we humans, governments, and industry players invest in technology and innovation to find solutions.
We humans are the principal driver of changes.
The International Association for Agriculture Sustainability (IAAS) Q1 Virtual Event promises you that we use our platform to not only educate and inspire a generation of environmental advocates, but also to work with incredible scholars and experts in related fields to put our vision of a more sustainable future into action.
Exchange
knowledge on sustainable
water management and
how to implement
technology to increase
the sector’s sustainability
and resilience.
Enhance
your professional
development by
surrounding yourself
with like-minded
people.
Expand
your horizons
by meeting with
aquaculture experts
from diverse
backgrounds.
Engage
in our virtual
networking event
with other thought
leaders, professionals,
and change makers
from all over the
world.

About IAAS
International Association of Agricultural Sustainability (IAAS) serves as an international platform for academicians, researchers, industry players and policy makers in the fields of agri-technology, sustainability, food technology, innovation, management and economics to communicate and interact for the advancement of research, instruction, trade promotion and policy development.
IAAS has built global partnerships across research institutes, established and start-up private enterprises in the past years to drive agri-food and agri-tech innovation. Our guest speakers from the related industry and institutions will deliver their thoughts and insights of the innovative solutions.
Everything we do– from our conferences to annual meetings– is driven by our goal:
How can we spark conversations and spread powerful ideas to change lives and, ultimately, the world?
Innovation in agriculture cuts
across all dimensions
of the production cycle
along the entire value chain.
Farmers rely on technology
to make their operations
as efficient, productive and
profitable as possible.
Sustainable agriculture is
intended to protect the
environment, expand the
Earth’s natural resources base.
Investing where it matters
to farmers and the
natural environment.
