About us

IAHR Panama YPN was founded by a group of young professionals with the aim to organize the YPN during the 38th IAHR World Congress held in Panama in September 2019. Since then, the group has organized and has been very active promoting and organizing activities both locally in Panama and regionally in Latin America.

The chapter's mission is to promote the development of technical capacities in the general field of hydro-environmental sciences (water, environment and renewable energies) in students and young professionals, and to influence through interdisciplinary scientific research in Panamanian society to achieve a more resilient and sustainable country.

The groups vision is to become a national reference in the field of hydro-environmental sciences (water, environment and renewable energies) for the design of sustainable solutions through a holistic and interdisciplinary approach, through the Panamanian professional youth, including universities, public and private sectors.
