Current Issues and Perspectives in Urban Water Demand Management

The Urban Water Demand Roundtable (UWDR) is a convening of practitioners, consultants, and academics engaged in water demand research. The UWDR was initially organized in 2012 by a group of water professionals and academics to fill a need for a forum with a higher level of dialogue about the ongoing and unexplored changes in urban water demand than could be found at existing national conferences and professional association events. This report was written to capture, organize, and communicate important and interesting insights, questions, and opinions expressed by participants in the 5th UWDR held April 8–9, 2019. The authors thank the Water Research Foundation, Arizona State University, and the Lincoln Institute for their financial support of the UWDR and the development of this report.
