In the area of water, megaconferences are of comparatively recent origin. A megaconference in this context is defined as an event attracting more than 1,500 participants. Historically, one would be hard pressed to identify many water conferences that attracted more than 1,500 participants prior to 1975. The participants in this context are defined as people who participated in the presentations and discussions, and not someone who participated in ancillary events as visitors.
