Registration for the WRRC 2025 Annual Conference is open! This year’s conference will be held on May 20–21, 2025, at the University of Arizona Student Union Memorial Center. While we strongly encourage in-person attendance to get the full experience, a non-interactive FREE Zoom livestream will also be available for those unable to attend in person. Our 2025 conference theme is Shared Borders, Shared Waters: Working Together in Times of Scarcity. The 2025 conference program will focus on the challenges and successes of collaborations across borders. The concept of “borders” is understood broadly, and speakers will address a range of cross-border issues. Presentations will focus on Arizona and the surrounding region, describing collaboration on waters shared by the US and Mexico, as well as cooperation across borders shared with sovereign Tribal Nations, interstate borders, and borders within Arizona. This year, we are also offering a pre-conference workshop on May 20, Better Listening to Help Transform Water Conflict, led by Oregon State University Professor Aaron Wolf. Workshop seats are limited and will only be open to registered conference attendees, so interested individuals should register early.
