MAP Group and 'Beyond Reasonable Drought', would be just a series of ideas and dreams, without the overwhelming generosity of our sponsors.

It is through their idealism and financial commitment that “Beyond Reasonable Drought” has become a reality. We thank them deeply.

The members of MAP Group would also like to publicly acknowledge the herculean efforts of Julie Millowick and Andrew Chapman as the primary forces behind 'Beyond Reasonable Drought', taking it from a simple idea to a project of which we can be justifiably proud. Without their dedication and the immense amount of work they have done in co-ordinating our project then it would have remained merely an unfulfilled dream. Thank you, Julie and Andrew.

We would also like to publicly thank the many, many people who appeared in our photographs, answered our questions and provided us with an insight into this terrible drought and how it has affected Australia. Without you, this project would never have succeeded.
