About the program

Drought isn’t an equal opportunity crisis—some sectors and communities are more affected than others. Join the PPIC Water Policy Center and state and local experts for a panel discussion about how to reduce its impacts to the most vulnerable sectors.

This research and event are supported with funding from the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) National Integrated Drought Information System (NIDIS) program and the S. D. Bechtel, Jr. Foundation.
