The global impacts of the COVID-19, the limitations of lockdown notices and difficulty in travel among others, have brought to a slowdown and in some cases halted any construction activity. It was WCCE responsibility to assess both the impact of COVID-19 during the pandemic and aftermath, but also the proposals to be made by civil engineers to prevent contagion of users, as well as enhance the health and safety of all professionals an employees. On such grounds, information has been compiled and discussion has been provided within WCCE Let's Talk Civil Engineering Series.
This monograph deals with the first of the topics, βDrought and flood management: Best practices and engineering contributionβ and has been prepared based on the reference documents in these matters and the contributions made by the members of the organizations that They are listed in the authorship section of the report and contributions.
The World Council of Civil Engineers, the United Nations Office in Spain and Aqualogy Foundation signed an agreement to publish a series of monographs under the topics chosen annually to commemorate the "International Year of Water" declared by the UN in the 2013-2015 triennium.
The initiative has been welcomed by several stakeholders including UN agencies which have presented their views on water related topics. Views expressed were non unanimous and even opposite, but have enriched the reader expressing pros and cons of each approach, being respectful with the other.
WCCE's World Annual Civil Engineering Report launched in 2014 consists of a series of articles examining civil engineering implications worldwide with a clear aim of providing an overall point of view of our profession. In addition various WCCE activities and initiatives are also included.

We are proud to introduce the new WCCE initiative, the online Journal of Applied Water Engineering and Research (JAWER) published jointly with the International Association for Hydro-Environment Engineering and Research (IAHR). This peer-reviewed Journal launched in 2013 publishes papers and practical case studies on all aspects of hydro-environment engineering and research. Practically oriented papers and case studies are particularly welcome.
JAWER has been evaluated for inclusion in Scopus by the Content Selection & Advisory Board (CSAB).
The Project Anti-Corruption System (PACS) is an integrated and comprehensive system designed to assist in the prevention and detection of corruption on construction projects. It uses a variety of anti-corruption measures, which can be integrated into project management. These measures impact on all project phases, on all major participants, and at a number of contractual levels. PACS comprises the PACS Standards and the PACS Templates.
