“The vital solutions desalination and water reuse technologies and systems provide to offset water scarcity continue to grow each year, as both contribute to meeting clean water demands for municipal, industrial, and agricultural needs. IDA leads a noble mission to promote these solutions and engage with all stakeholders around the globe.”
Carlos Cosín
President of IDA
“We are committed to building an expanded IDA community that embraces all aspects of planning and satisfying global water needs and promoting communication within that expanded community. Our vision is an IDA community that includes not only technology providers, but also government policy-makers, technology users, the international finance community, global think tanks, and NGOs.”
Shannon McCarthy
IDA Secretary General
“Each of us has favorite papers, presentations, books and patents (not necessarily our own!) which we believe influenced the way desalination was understood and advanced over the years.”
Dr. Jim Birkett
IDA Honorary Council Member and Former IDA President
“IDA, since its inception, has become the godparent of the desalination and water reuse industry. The membership mix of engineers, researchers, water companies, end users, developers, contractors, legal and financial institutions has created the necessary alliance, to help achieve the goals of water sufficiency, efficiency and sustainability.”
Ghassan Ejjeh
IDA Honorary Council Member and Former IDA President
“The role of IDA, its directors and members has been of the utmost importance to let the world know about the importance and progress of water desalination and reuse technology to make water available at a low cost, in places where development is seriously restricted by the lack of water.”
José Antonio Medina
IDA Honorary Council Member and Former IDA President
“Desalination and water reuse have become the staple of countries in need of new water sources and along the way has spawned many corporations, both big and small who supply myriads of products for this industry. IDA has provided constant leadership throughout its history guiding the present and future role of desalination.“
David Furukawa
IDA Honorary Council Member and Former IDA President
“In recent years, desalination has become a mainstream water supply alternative in a world of increasing water stress. It is no longer the last- remedy expensive technology used by those countries that can afford it as was the case at the beginning of my career in this field. The real potential of reuse is also finally being fully recognized.”
Dr. Emilio Gabbrielli
IDA Honorary Council Member and Former IDA President
