Water Resilience Summit 2019

Have you become concerned by the increasing coverage of mass loss of biodiversity, escalating climate change impacts and ecosystem failure…? If you have, you should come along to the 2019 Water Resilience Summit and meet the experts we have assembled for a day of learning and dialogue – you can seek the answers to your questions and find our how worried you should be….

The 2019 Water Resilience Summit will be a day of action-orientated discussions, learning and planning with stakeholders from across the South West to explore how our local water environments (river catchments, wetlands, lakes, estuaries, coastal and marine) provide us all with benefits everyday and to discuss what their resilience (or non-resilience) might mean for people, communities, businesses and nature over the next 20 years.

At the Summit:

1. You will discover how the health of the water environment effects all of our lives and about the work being undertaken to determine how resilient it, people, communities and businesses are to the challenges we face now and in the future.

2. You will also be able to meet the people and organisations already working to increase the resilience of our local environment and you will hear inspiring stories from an array of local ‘resilience champions’ that we have gathered from across the South West.

3. From the ‘resilience champions’ you will learn first-hand about the issues and challenges we are facing, the actions they are taking to overcome them and be empowered to begin taking action yourself to become more resilient in the future.

We hope that, by coming along to the 2019 Water Resilience Summit, you will be inspired and empowered to join the growing group of people and organisations working to make the South West more resilient to the threats we face, both now and in the future.
