More than a billion people lack sufficient clean water to meet their basic needs 27 nations don't have enough water and another 16 are water stressed. The UN predicts that rising demand for water will threaten human and ecological health over the next generation. As public health development economics and nature suffer governments are becoming more aware of the need to ensure access to clean water. This book examines approaches and techniques for getting the public more involved in improving water resources management in order to improve decision making and problem solving. The authors identify conventional and emerging mechanisms approaches and practices for successfully engaging users and other stake holders. Benefits include raising the profiles of otherwise marginalised water users and improving their access to clean water resources on a sustainable basis. The knowledge that is crucial for water management is distributed across governments non governmental organizations and the water users themselves. In most circumstances water management aims to address these diverse interests by integrating usage across hydrologically meaningful units such as watersheds. But the authors also explore issues like transboundary flows multiple basins inter basin transfers and virtual water transfers which can necessitate a broader perspective and new techniques. 222 pp.

National sovereignty and human security changing realities and concepts in international water management/Nevelina I. Pachova Mikiyasu Nakayama and Libor Jansky. Index. Water is essential for all aspects of life. Managing water is a challenging task particularly in shared water basins that host more than half of the world's population. National sovereignty and security considerations have long constrained the reasonable equitable and sustainable utilization of international water courses. With post cold war democratization and globalization on the rise domestic actors have an increasingly important role to play in national decision making and traditional foreign policy debates. This change entails new threats but also presents new opportunities for ensuring international water security. This volume explores both these threats and opportunities through the presentation of case studies that analyze the multi faceted and dynamic nature of the interplay between domestic and international water security. In so doing a range of past on going and emerging international water disputes from the Middle East Africa Asia and Europe are examined. Well known cases are revisited from new perspectives while new approaches are suggested as analytical frameworks and practical tools for understanding and coping with emerging security threats. 314 pp.

Strategies for advancing public involvement in international watershed management/Carl Bruch Libor Jansky Mikiyasu Nakayama and Kazimierz. A. Salewicz. Index. Clean water is essential to human survival yet it is increasingly scarce. Despite pressures on this crucial resource people often have little or no opportunity to participate in watershed decision that affect them particularly when they live along international watercourses. The United Nations has identifies the rising demand for water as one of four major factors that will threaten human and ecological health for at least a generation. Over the coming decade governments throughout the world will struggle to manage water in ways that are efficient equitable and environmentally sound. Whether these efforts succeed may turn in large part on providing the public with a voice in watershed management decisions that directly affect them. Public involvement holds the promise of improving the management international watercourses and reducing the.
