May 28th - Dams and Reservoirs Day 2025

Dams and Reservoirs Day is an annual celebration established by EurCOLD (ICOLD European Club) and held in May. The initiative was launched by the Italian Committee on Large Dams (ITCOLD) to advocate for, recognize contributions to, and promote knowledge about the role of dams, reservoirs, tailings dams, and levees in economic, social, and environmental contexts. The event was first celebrated on May 29, 2024, under the motto “Dam Day: Reservoirs for Europe.” This year, the second edition will take place on May 28, with active participation from EurCOLD member countries.
