Water has always shaped Arizona's story. It has influenced where we live, how we grow, the industries we build, and the communities we call home. As our state continues to evolve, ensuring a reliable and sustainable water future has become one of the most important opportunities facing Arizona.


The Arizona Water Summit will convene an extraordinary group of Arizona leaders for a thoughtful discussion on the future of water policy, conservation, infrastructure, innovation, and long-term economic prosperity. Bringing together leaders from every level of government, this conversation will explore how collaboration and forward-thinking leadership can help secure Arizona's water future for generations to come.


Featured participants include:

U.S. Senator Ruben Gallego

U.S. Representative Adelita Grijalva

Supervisor Jennifer Allen, Pima County Board of Supervisors 

Mayor Regina Romero, City of Tucson

Director of the Arizona Department of Water Resources - Tom Buschatzke


Together, these leaders represent federal, state, county, and local government, offering attendees a unique opportunity to hear diverse perspectives on one of Arizona's most important issues.

Hosted by the Southern Arizona Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, the Summit will bring together business leaders, water experts, elected officials, educators, tribal partners, and community stakeholders for a meaningful dialogue about balancing economic growth, environmental stewardship, infrastructure investment, and responsible water management.

Water is more than a resource. It is the foundation of Arizona's economy, our quality of life, and our future.
