Bari: a Mediterranean gateway for the global water community

Located in Apulia at the heart of the Mediterranean, Bari offers a compelling setting for a world congress focused on transition, connectivity and sustainability. The city links East and West, science and culture, infrastructure and landscape.

The congress proposal identifies The Nicolaus Hotel as the main venue for scientific sessions and meeting spaces, with capacity for plenary functions, multiple parallel rooms and hospitality services.

Bari also provides a strong cultural dimension, with seafront landmarks, historic districts, excellent rail and air connections, and access to the wider Apulian region.
