As climate variability intensifies and communities confront aging infrastructure, different levels of water regulations, questions of water access, quality, and quantity move from background context to front-page decisions. Ensuring water security for future generations is not a simple individual task, it’s a collective practice that asks leaders to work across different spaces with integrity, persistence, and respect. |

| Our latest Arizona Water Leadership Institute cohort brought together emerging water leaders from both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border, some from as far as Hermosillo, Sonora, to collaborate on solutions for our shared water challenges. Read about the experiences of graduates Leticia Daniela Haro Gonzalez and Ally Alvarez in an article by our network members from the Environmental Defense Fund. |

“We’re at a point where we have to make some serious long-term adjustment of expectations. In other words, people need to agree to take a lot less water than they've been counting on. And that is always really hard when water is scarce,” says Sarah Porter, director of the Kyl Center for Water Policy at Arizona State University. |
