Abstract
Water is a valuable and irreplaceable element for the socio-economic development of countries. It is also the most important factor for the equilibrium of the ecosystem and environment. Todays, several factors cause water problems and related issues around the world. Governments and nations are always looking for the correct understanding of water issues and providing sustainable solutions to solve these problems. This attitude causes governments, institutions and water authorities to get together in international meetings. Hence, international festivals are held around the world in order to enhance solutions to water problems, make a global dialogue and take advantage of collective wisdom to resolve water related issues. In most of these events, some prizes are awarded to those who have made outstanding contributions in the field of water problems. The purpose of this paper is to review the most important international events in this regard and introduce effective criteria for achieving international water awards.
