WATSAVE AWARDS
The International Commission on Irrigation and Drainage (ICID) decided at its 48th meeting in Oxford, UK in 1998 to institute the ICID Watsave Annual Award(s), which includes Technology Award aiming at promoting research that leads to substantial savings in water applications or uses, besides demonstrated savings in a project or allied areas; Innovative Water Management Award aiming at promoting development of new policies/approaches for water saving leading to cost effective and efficient use of water; and Young Professionals Award aiming at promoting all the above activities listed for the two ICID's Awards but to be conferred only to "Young Professionals" up to the age of 40 years. Since then the award(s) have been presented each year to an individual or a team of individuals for OUTSTANDING CONTRIBUTION to water conservation/water saving for increasing the beneficial and/or efficient use of water to develop and improve the sustainable use of the critical resource.
The award aims at -
(i) Promoting and encouraging the best technological applications or projects which have been successful in saving and/or recovering waste waters/low quality waters.
(ii) Promoting other non-technological interventions and/or innovative land and water management/techniques for increasing the availability of water for different uses.
(iii) Promoting research that leads to substantial savings in water applications or uses.
(iv) Promoting development of new policies/approaches for water saving leading to cost effective and beneficial use of water.

The YEAR 2005 award(s) will be invited after the 55th meeting of the International Executive Council, Moscow, Russia.

BEST PERFORMING NATIONAL COMMITTEE
ICID has instituted a new Award to recognize the best performing ICID National Committee. The Award will be presented in the form of Revolving Shield and a Citation Plaque at every Congress triennially based on various facets demonstrated by the participating National Committees between two ICID Congresses over a three year period. The Revolving Shield will move to the next award winner every three years with an inscription about the past winner. The Citation Plaque will remain with the award winning National Committee. The first award has been presented at the time of 18th ICID Congress, Montreal in July 2002 to Korean National Committee (KCID) for its outstanding achievements and contribution to ICID activities in the years 1999 to 2002.
