Dear Colleagues,

I am delighted to announce the 2^nd International Symposium of Water Disaster Mitigation and Water Environment Regulation (WDWE2021), to be held at Sichuan University, Chengdu, from July 7^th to 9^th, 2021.

The first symposium was successfully held by Sichuan University in 2019, to provide a platform for global academic exchanges on the scientific effort in disaster loss reduction and ecological restoration associated with the more frequent urban and rural flooding, other water disasters, and the challenging water environmental and ecological problems in the modern world. The 48 invited speeches delivered by world-leading experts from all over the world attracted over 100 young professionals, researchers and students during the two-day event.

The 2021 Symposium will be organized by the State Key Laboratory of Hydraulics and Mountain River Engineering (SKLH, Sichuan University) as a hybrid conference combining both onsite and online participation. Registration will be open to academics, professionals and students across the world. Presenters will be asked to submit their abstracts, and full paper submissions are welcomed and will be published in the proceedings of the symposium after peer-review processes. Further details of the event, including the key dates for abstract submission and registration, are enclosed below. We look forward to getting together with friends, colleagues and peer researchers/ professionals and hosting every delegate with another successful symposium.

Wish you a Happy Chinese New Year.
