Abstract : Almost all researchers on Qanat have their interest in its origins, diffusion and dispersal, however there are no many studies conducted for its rehabilitation. As Qanat system. is globally distributed, even at the present time. re-evaluation of the system with appropriate case studies are highly recommended. Regional unbalance of case studies is another problem to be tackled in future cooperation. For example. in the Iranian case, including Afghanistan, we notice that scientific contributions mainly by local institutions are not well known by international scientific groups because of the language barrier. Fortunately the first international conference on Qanat was held in Iran (Yazd) in 2000. As one of the results of the international conference, the Iranian Government has decided to establish an International Qanat Research Center in Iran in collaboration with UNESCO and the centre has already started their activities from last year. Publications of Yazd conference includes a glossary and bibliography on Qanat which may constitute the first challenge of Qanat studies. They have built a water museum in Yazd with a rich collection of Qanat tools and related documents such as water sharing and using contract. After this international symposium we had three related symposiums I) Colloque internationale de Qanat, Madrid 200 I 2) International symposium in water conveyance which was held in 2002, Muscat oman. 3) Qanat technology.
