Thank You and Best Wishes to AGWA’s Kelsey Harpham

All of us in the AGWA Secretariat want to extend a huge “thank you” and wish a bittersweet goodbye to our friend and colleague, Kelsey Harpham, as she embarks on a new challenge as part of the water leadership team at the global engineering firm WSP in Oregon. Kelsey has been an invaluable member of AGWA’s policy team and one of the main reasons behind the success of the Water Tracker initiative, serving as its steward and champion for the past three years.

Kelsey joined AGWA in May 2021 and quickly became a vital member of not only the organization, but the broader climate and water community — having worked with dozens of you over the years in our efforts to mainstream water resilience into national climate planning.

Thanks to Kelsey’s tireless leadership, the Water Tracker initiative continues to grow — and we are actively recruiting for her successor. Stay tuned for more announcements on that front! For now, please join all of us at AGWA in thanking Kelsey for her three years of service to the organization and wishing her the best of luck with this next chapter!
