The 2025 National Congress of the Chilean Hydraulics Society was held between October 20 and 25, bringing together researchers, professionals, and students to discuss current and future challenges related to water. During the week, more than 120 papers were presented on hydraulic works, socio-hydrology, watershed management, and innovation in water resource use. The program included specialized courses and high-level technical and academic exchange sessions.

As sponsors, at NaturaInvest we reaffirmed our commitment to sustainable water resource management. We recognize that many companies depend on water at various stages of their production processes, so we are deeply interested in understanding how its availability is assessed, how it is managed, and how organizations adapt to new regulations and innovations in the sector.

The conference was also a valuable opportunity to forge links with researchers from universities throughout Chile and with international leaders, including prominent specialists in river restoration and Nature-based Solutions (NbS), who shared a global perspective on the challenges and opportunities in water management.

We thank the Chilean Hydraulics Society for this opportunity for collaboration and learning. At NaturaInvest, we continue to drive change towards more resilient and sustainable water management.
