2026 IWEA Annual Conference

Purpose Runs Deep.

This year’s theme, Purpose Runs Deep, celebrates the calling beneath the everyday work of water and wastewater professionals. Like an anchor below the surface, this industry provides unseen strength—protecting public health, preserving Indiana’s waterways, and helping communities stay resilient for generations to come. From operators and engineers to utility leaders, suppliers, educators, and young professionals, our work is guided by something deeper than infrastructure alone: a shared commitment to service, stewardship, and continuous improvement.

The Indiana Water Environment Association invites you to join us August 26–28 at the Indiana Convention Center as we chart new ideas, navigate challenges together, and recognize the passion that keeps this industry moving forward. Because in water, as in life, the deepest purpose often has the greatest impact.
