Scenario

When families face pressure to share inherited resource rights during crisis

Our family owns water rights that go back four generations but now with the drought our neighbors are pressuring us to share and we can't agree among ourselves what the right thing to do is. My dad says we earned these rights and my cousins say we have a moral obligation to the community, and I'm caught in the middle trying to hold our family together.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A family is being forced to choose between legal ownership and moral obligation while their community watches and waits.
