Confronting Arizona’s Water Crisis: Join the Symposium on Equitable Distribution

Water scarcity and its fair distribution are critical issues that have long posed significant challenges in Arizona. To address this complex topic, The Creation Care Council of the Episcopal Diocese of Arizona is hosting "The Trouble with Water" symposium. This pivotal event will take place on Saturday, June 1, 2024, from 9 AM to 4:30 PM at The Church of the Transfiguration in Mesa, AZ. RSVP today.

The symposium aims to shed light on the multifaceted aspects of water availability and distribution within the state. With a lineup of distinguished speakers, including Dr. Jerry Delli Priscoli, former Water Policy Director of the US Army Corps of Engineers, and Mark Killian, former Director of the AZ Department of Agriculture, attendees will gain insights from experts at the forefront of their fields. Additionally, Native American farmers and Tribal Council Members from the Aquimel O’odham and Navajo Tribes will share their unique perspectives, enriching the dialogue.

This event is not designed as a debate but as a platform for diverse viewpoints to be expressed openly and for attendees to engage directly with experts through questions and discussions. Whether you're a professional dealing with water management, an academic, or simply a concerned citizen, this symposium will equip you with the latest information and perspectives on the pressing issue of water in Arizona.

The event is free to attend, with lunch provided, but registration is required by May 24th. Don’t miss this opportunity to be part of a critical conversation on one of Arizona’s most pressing environmental and social issues. Register today to secure your spot and contribute to a dialogue that could shape the future of water distribution in Arizona.
