The international conferences in the IGWC series are the meeting point for groundwater professionals and researchers, bringing together experts in the various inter-related disciplines in groundwater hydrology. Groundwater has emerged as a significant resource in safeguarding agriculture and drinking water security in many parts of the globe. India is, at present, the most prominent and fastest consumer of groundwater in the world. The role of groundwater in contributing to water security and searching for solutions for its conservation and sustainable management at present will play a crucial role in meeting the water demands of the population in future against the backdrop of climate change and ensuring food and water security for both the developed and developing countries. The aim of IGWC 2022 is to provide a common platform for researchers, academicians, water managers, industrialists and technocrats to discuss and present their vision for Effective Management of (sub)-surface water resources in arid and semi-arid regions.
