Groundwater plays a significant role in fulfilling water demand of sectors like domestic, agriculture, industry as well as for the river e-flows in Nepal. While the climatic as well as anthropogenic changes have altered the groundwater level and chemistry. Moreover, with growing recognition of the importance of groundwater storage in Terai as well as in the Mid-hills, attention has been drawn to enhance groundwater recharge and its sustainability. Timely study of groundwater issues and its management is necessary. The symposium invites researchers, managers, policy makers and entrepreneurs to gather, share and discuss their research findings, proven technologies, and management approaches. Research papers on the following thematic areas are invited:<\/p>\n
