INVITATION

Dear Colleagues,

We are deeply honoured to invite you to participate in the XXXV IAH Congress, which will be held from 17 to 21 September 2007 in the city of Lisbon, capital of Portugal.
Together with the Congress, three special events will also occur: a Meeting on the History of Hydrogeology and a Symposium on Thermal and Mineral Waters in Hard Rock Terrains, and the meeting of the Working Group on Groundwater (WGC) under the Common Implementation Strategy of the Water Framework Directive.

Lisboa is an ancient and, at the same time, modern city, which offers you all the comfort and the sense of history that will make your visit unforgettable.
Welcome to our Congress, welcome to our country.
