Abstract

This dataset contains the anonymized responses from a global survey conducted in advance of the 2024 International Association of Hydrogeologists (IAH) Congress held in Davos, Switzerland. The aim of the survey was to gather insights into the educational backgrounds and experiences, career trajectories, and professional perspectives of individuals working in the field of hydrogeology. Respondents included students, academics, consultants, and practitioners from 82 countries, offering a diverse and international overview of current trends and challenges in hydrogeological education and workforce development.
In addition to survey responses, the dataset includes the full list of questions used in the survey. Note that the survey employed conditional logic: not all respondents were presented with the same set of questions, as certain follow-up items were shown based on earlier answers. Furthermore, some questions were optional, meaning that response counts may vary across items.

During the survey design and associated workshops and discussions at the Congress, particular efforts were made to ensure diverse voices were heard, and represented. However, the final dataset still reflects a bias toward respondents from the Global North. This limitation should be taken into account in any interpretation of the data.

This dataset is intended to support further research, comparative analyses, and ongoing dialogue about the future of hydrogeology education and professional training.
