a) Mission Statement Annotation
The New Mexico Water Dialogue is committed to facilitating conversations among different entities in the state, aiming to support New Mexico’s diverse values and uses of water. It is important to note that the organization does not advocate for specific outcomes or take sides. Instead, it focuses on creating a space where all voices can be heard and all perspectives can be taken into account. While the organization does not take a neutral stance, it uses its mission as a guiding principle to ensure that discussions remain focused on advancing conversation, providing education, building relationships, and enabling collaboration to inform the decision-making process. NMWD strives to foster a better understanding of the complex issues surrounding water use in the state and to promote the best solutions for its collective interests.

Public Education Campaign “Water Can’t Wait” Encourages Policymakers to Prioritize State Water Issues

A new public education campaign “Water Can’t Wait” was recently launched to elevate water issues in New Mexico. The goal is to ensure addressing the water crisis is a priority for communities, local governments, and policy makers in upcoming legislative sessions and throughout the year, and for water administrators as they enforce rules and make new regulations. The campaign features storytelling and community voices prominently, with New Mexicans from all corners of the state coming together with one voice to say “Water Can’t Wait.” Funding is provided by the Water Foundation.
