Risks to shared water resources in the Murray–Darling Basin. Hybrid Event: Held in-person at ANU and online
Description
The ANU Institute for Water Futures invites you to a symposium on a recently published scientific review of water resources.
The large-scale review - led by the Australian National University (ANU) and involving 24 experts from 10 organisations - found that most previously identified risks to water resources in the Murray-Darling Basin remain, with new risks emerging. Water managers must plan for a significant decrease in water availability and governments need to actively manage these risks under conditions of increasing uncertainty.
These reviews bring an updated understanding of risk assessment and management that can contribute to the upcoming reviews of the Water Act and Basin Plan in 2024–26.
The event will include presentations by authors on the 6 key risks to water resources in the Basin, a presentation on the synthesis paper, and audience Q&A sessions.
