Become a Fellow of IHA

Fellowship is a new tier of IHA membership which recognises the expertise of leading professionals within the hydropower sector. 

Fellow status is awarded on the basis of proven experience and is a great opportunity to develop your professional network and connect with peers from around the world.

As a Fellow of IHA, you will:

  • Gain international recognition: receive a professional title in the form of the letters “F.IHA” after your name and raise your profile among the hydropower community. 
  • Join a global network of leaders: collaborate with fellow industry leaders through online groups, trainings, workshops, webinars and other events.
  • Help steer hydropower’s future: be at the forefront of hydropower development and contribute your wealth of knowledge, experience and ideas to IHA’s programmes. 
  • Your status acknowledged: benefit from a special acknowledgement in IHA’s annual report and on the website.
