The 2022 Platte River Basin Conference and 3rd Playa Research Symposium will be held Monday, October 24th to Thursday, October 27th at the Younes Conference Center in Kearney, Nebraska. Join leaders from Nebraska, Colorado, Wyoming, and beyond to discuss the interrelated perspectives needed to create vibrant, resilient solutions for the future of the people and wildlife who depend on the Platte River Basin.

Conference topics include:

  • Indigenous, western science, and cultural perspectives on water
  • The history and future of the Platte River Basin
  • Expert presentations on resiliency, water science, ecology, policy, and more

The conference also features an evening of art, food, and conversation at Audubon Nebraska’s Rowe Sanctuary.

While the Platte River Basin Conference and 3rd Playa Research Symposium are both designed as in-person events, some sessions will include virtual options. Attendees are welcome to attend both portions of the conference or select the days that are most interesting to them.
