Its meetings and symposia are the most significant water events in Brazil, with over 1,500 water professionals participating in its bi-annual symposium and presenting over 1,000 technical and scientific papers. Regional and specialty meetings are also an important arena for development of significant water issues in Brazil. Several meetings are organized in cooperation with organizations from Latin America and Portuguese speaking countries.
Throughout its 34 years of existence, ABRH developed a strong partnership with similar entities worldwide, especially with the IWRA - International Water Resources Association, IAHS - International Association on Hydraulic Sciences, APRH - Associação Portuguesa de Recursos Hídricos, IWA - international Water Association, and the GWP - Global Water Partnership.
