DHyG is a member of several associations and organizations. Through the network that is created in this way, more can be achieved as a group. The associations that issued the "Bremen Declaration" in 2008 are pursuing the same goal. Together, the associations - in addition to the DHyG, for example, the DVW or the VDV - want to represent professional interests to the public and politicians. Joint advanced and further training courses are also offered. The cooperation benefits all members.
The office
The office is managed by Sabine Müller. She is the central contact for all questions. And she also has an answer to all questions. In addition, she takes care of all correspondence with members, arranges for the printing and mailing of the Hydrographische Nachrichten, processes applications, organizes the Hydrographic Days ... in short: she simply takes care of everything.
