The president of the Commission for Hydrology (CHy), Mr Harry Lins, opened the extraordinary session of the Commission on 13 February 2019 at 2.30 p.m. at the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) Headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland. He recalled that EC-70 tasked him to convene this very first extraordinary session of CHy to engage the hydrological community in: (a) suggesting optimal solutions for effective participation of WMO in the global water agenda, and (b) providing recommendations to Congress on ways to integrate hydrological activities into the new WMO structure. The reform process offers a great opportunity to the hydrological community to enhance its role, and the president expressed his confidence that the Commission will be able to respond appropriately to the EC request.
