Thank you for attending our seventh annual Water for All Summit!
We were thrilled to welcome over 180 water industry professionals from across the region to discuss the importance of Water First, examining how we prioritize, manage, and advocate for water resources not just as an environmental issue, but as a fundamental component of our daily lives, public health, and the economy.
