MISSION
The ICOLD Young Professionals Forum (YPF) aims to inspire and guide the next generation to actively engage and shape the future of ICOLD. Focusing on professionals under 40 years old, embarking on the early stages of their careers, YPF provides opportunities for knowledge exchange and networking with peers. YPF aspires to foster meaningful connections and enhance the intergenerational dialogue within ICOLD.
HISTORY
The original vision for the ICOLD Young Engineers Forum (YEF) was developed during the 2009 ICOLD Congress in Brasilia. A more detailed proposal for YEF was submitted to the ICOLD Board in 2010. The detailed proposal received the support of the ICOLD Board and the first inaugural YEF meeting took place at the Annual Meeting in Lucerne, 2011. It is there that the Young Engineers Forum is officially born in the presence of about twenty young people from eleven countries representing the five continents (Albania, Australia, Austria, Czech Republic, Mozambique, Slovenia, Sri Lanka, South Korea, Sweden, Switzerland, United States). Marco Conrad from Switzerland was elected as the first president. In 2022, a Special Committee was formed to increase the involvement of young professionals in technical committees. As part of its efforts, the committee proposed changing the designation from Young Engineers Forum (YEF) to Young Professionals Forum (YPF).
