2024 SDSU Water Day

Bringing Together Leaders in Water

Join us for the return of SDSU Water Day, an exciting event dedicated to addressing water management challenges and fostering collaboration among researchers, stakeholders, and professionals. First held in April 2019, SDSU Water Day is making its much-anticipated comeback after a hiatus from 2020 to 2023 due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

About the Event

SDSU Water Day is a unique opportunity for the community to engage with leading experts in water management, learn about ongoing research initiatives, and contribute to shaping the future of water resources in the San Diego region. This event is designed to promote collaboration, innovation, and the development of actionable solutions to the complex water challenges facing Southern California and the border region.

This interactive meeting brings together leaders in water to improve the integration of science, policy, and water management. Southern California faces critical challenges related to water resources and quality, including drinking water supply shortages, climate change, water quality deterioration, impaired surface water bodies, soil erosion, and coastal contamination. By developing valuable partnerships, local researchers and organizations can work together to address these pressing water issues.

Workshop Objectives

Identify Research Priorities: Focus on the key "big ideas" for water management in San Diego County and the border region.
Develop Partnerships: Foster collaboration between SDSU, industry, and government to address water management challenges.
Promote Integration: Enhance the integration of science, policy, and water management by aligning research questions with critical management needs.
