64th session of the Intergovernmental Hydrological Programme Bureau
The Intergovernmental Hydrological Programme (IHP) Bureau is a vital executive body that operates between sessions of the IHP Council. It plays a crucial role in programme oversight and implementation. The Bureau comprises six elected representatives from UNESCO Member States.
Overview
As the executive arm of the IHP, the Bureau's primary responsibilities include monitoring programme implementation, providing strategic guidance, and ensuring that IHP initiatives align with UNESCO's broader mission in water sciences. It reviews progress reports, evaluates ongoing projects, and makes recommendations for future activities.
The 64th session of the IHP Bureau will take place from 29 to 30 April 2025 at UNESCO Headquarters in Paris, France. During this session, members will assess progress on the implementation of current water-related programmes, discuss emerging challenges, and provide direction.
The session which is opened to observers will be accessible via livestream through the UNESCO events platform, ensuring global participation and transparency. Session documents and additional information will be made available on the Bureau meeting webpages (links provided below).
