World Water Week 2023 is focused on innovation at a time of unprecedented challenges. The theme Seeds of Change: Innovative Solutions for a Water-Wise World invites us to rethink how we manage water. Which ideas, innovations, and governance systems will we need in a more unstable and water scarce world? This year, much of the content will build on discussions at the UN 2023 Water Conference and commitments to the Water Action Agenda.

The GWTC conference is designed to highlight existing and new geospatial and technological tools to solve water resources-related problems. Submit an abstract by September 6, 2023. See conference website for details.
The conference seeks to bring together a diverse multi-disciplinary group of water professionals – to disseminate, share, and learn about research-based cutting-edge solutions to evaluate and address future water risks and improve how society can adapt to these risks. Submit an abstract between August 22 – October 6, 2023. See conference website for details.
The conference will highlight water challenges throughout the four corners of Washington State and the innovative ways that individuals are dealing with those issues. The conference will feature speakers from each of the four corners of Washington with varying perspectives, including agriculture, government, and tribal nations. Speakers will cover topics including municipal water law, adjudication, fish reintroduction, the Yakima Basin Integrated Plan, and climate change. The conference will start with an address from the keynote speaker, Derek Sandison, who is the director of the Washington State Department of Agriculture. Following Derek Sandison’s address there will be four separate panels, one dedicated to each corner of Washington. The last session will focus on more overarching, or non-region-specific changes and adaptations.
Conference details are available at the American Water Resources Association Washington Section website.
