Water Symposium

The Water Symposium for the Upper Namoi Valley is a community-centered event aimed at gathering the insights and experiences of our local community and landholders. Recognising the vital role they play in our region's sustainability, the symposium seeks to address the challenges and opportunities related to water management in our region. With changing rainfall, temperature, and agricultural practices, it’s crucial to hear from those most impacted. By fostering dialogue and sharing diverse perspectives, we aim to develop collective strategies for sustainable water management, landscape rehydration, and resilience against environmental pressures. This collaborative approach ensures that the voices of our community are at the forefront of shaping a sustainable future for the Upper Namoi Valley.
