WRRC 2023 Annual Conference - What Can We Do? Solutions to Arizona’s Water Challenges


  • University of Arizona Student Union 1303 East University Boulevard Tucson, AZ 85719 (map)

The University of Arizona Water Resources Research Center 2023 Conference, What Can We Do? Solutions to Arizona’s Water Challenges, will be held July 11–12 at the University of Arizona. The conference will aim to address the pressing water resource challenges currently facing Arizona and the region. These are worrisome times. For many Arizona residents, meeting existing water demands under drought in the Colorado River Basin is foremost on their minds. Beyond this critical challenge, growth and climate change continue to pressure water supplies. Others face concerns of local water contamination or groundwater overdraft issues. The natural environment in many areas is threatened by drought and competing water uses, and some communities lack access to safe and adequate water service. Farmers are tasked with increasing water efficiency and cities need additional effective conservation strategies. By focusing on solutions, the WRRC hopes to bring forward ideas that offer pathways to water security for all Arizonans.
