Top experts from around the globe will discuss the latest science and technologies to enhance rainfall artificially. The event brings together leaders, academics and stakeholders to foster important collaboration. 


A new cycle of research grants will also be announced. Up to $1.5 million will be allocated per project to support innovative studies. Priority areas include optimized cloud seeding methods, autonomous drone deployment, localized climate tools and advanced data modeling. This funding boosts critical work toward sustainable water solutions.


The UAE remains at the forefront of international efforts in water management and weather modification. Significant investments have already unlocked promising technologies through these research grants over the past decade. The new initiatives will build on past successes and drive the field forward.


Closing knowledge gaps on effective and localized rainfall enhancement is key. The research program provides comprehensive support to awardees. Projects receive guidance, access to facilities and assistance applying findings to the UAE's environment. This strengthens research impacts and ensures solutions work within varied climate conditions.


As water stress rises globally innovative science offers hope The UAE program continues championing cooperation and new ideas that can enhance water security for communities worldwide now and into the future. Its 10th anniversary celebrations will renew important momentum on this shared challenge.
