To motivate the young generation to think and work on soil and
water conservation, International Youth Forum on Soil and Water Conservation (IYFSWC)
is initiated and sponsored by WASWAC. It is a global academic exchange activity
designed for the young generations, which is held once every three years, and
has become a valuable platform in ideas exchanging, knowledge sharing, and
solutions providing. Until now, this symposium forum has been successfully
held 4 times, in China, Russia, and Iran respectively.
