A green-gray path to global water security and sustainable infrastructure
Sustainable development demands reliable water resources, yet traditional water management has broadly failed to avoid environmental degradation and contain infrastructure costs. We explore the global-scale feasibility of combining natural capital with engineering-based (green-gray) approaches to meet water security threats over the 21st century. Threats to water resource systems are projected to rise throughout this period, together with a signi…
A diagnostic dashboard to evaluate country water security
While water security is widely regarded as an issue of global significance and concern, there is not yet a consensus on a methodology for evaluating it. The difficulty in operationalizing the concept comes from its various interpretations and characteristics at different spatial and temporal scales. In this paper, we generate a dashboard comprised of 52 indicators to facilitate a rapid assessment of a country's water security and to focus the fir…
Rethinking water for SDG 6
Beyond the River
Building real cooperation on transboundary waters is always a lengthy and complex journey. Embracing cooperation \nis no simple task for a nation state, not least because of the perceived costs of the erosion of sovereignty, however \nsmall that erosion might be. While there are many examples of where cooperation is non-existent or weak, there \nare also examples of robust cooperation. This essay examines these questions through a practitioner’s …
Effective Cooperation on Transboundary Waters
Building effective cooperation on transboundary waters is always a lengthy and complex journey. Embracing cooperation is no simple task for a nation state, not least because of the perceived costs of the erosion of sovereignty, however small that erosion might be. While there are many examples of where cooperation is non-existent or weak, there are also examples – across countries and across time – of effective cooperation. This essay examines th…
Managing Water Resources to Maximize Sustainable Growth
This note contains a summary, for \n practitioners, of the World Bank Country Water Resources \n Assistance Strategy (CWRAS) report: it concerns managing \n water resources to maximize sustainable growth and focuses \n on World Bank water resources assistance strategy for \n Ethiopia (March 2006). Specifically, the note describes the \n scope and scale of the impacts of hydrological variability \n on Ethiopia's economic performance, poverty, natu…

This publication provides an overview of the world s shared water resources and insights for managing these resources. Using case studies from around the world, it describes the benefits to be gained from cooperation and the challenges of constructing legal frameworks, institutions, management processes and financing and partnership strategies to govern transboundary waters equitably and sustainably
Sink or Swim? Water security for growth and development
Achieving basic water security, both harnessing the productive potential of water and limiting its destructive impact, has always been a societal priority. To capture this duality, water security is defined here as the availability of an acceptable quantity and quality of water for health, livelihoods, ecosystems and production, coupled with an acceptable level of water-related risks to people, environments and economies. This paper looks broadly…
Africa's International Rivers
Cooperative management, and development of Africa's international rivers holds real promise for greater sustainability, and productivity of the continent's increasingly scarce water resources, and fragile environment. Moreover, the potential benefits of cooperative water resources management, can serve as catalysts for broader regional cooperation, economic integration, and development - and even conflict prevention. But riparians will pursue joi…
