1. chapter 1 part 1 introduction to iwrm
This document introduces integrated water resources management (IWRM). It discusses the global water crisis, including that over 2 billion people suffer water shortages and 1.1 billion lack access to safe drinking water. IWRM is presented as a framework that takes a holistic, cross-sectoral approach to managing water resources at the river basin level through participatory decision-making. The key elements of IWRM include considering the interdependency between different water uses, treating water as both an economic and social good, and establishing decentralized management structures that rely on economic instruments and stakeholder participation. Adopting a water management framework based on IWRM principles can help analyze policies, guide water allocation decisions, and facilitate consideration of relationships

This document summarizes CRP 5, which aims to improve livelihoods and food security through solutions to water scarcity and land degradation. It outlines the development challenges addressed, goals and objectives. It then describes "best bets" or solutions across various areas like rainfed and irrigated systems, wastewater, river basins, groundwater, pastoral systems and ecosystems. For each area, it provides expected outputs and outcomes over 3-6 years. It also describes the proposed governance structure and budgets, indicating impact areas in sub-Saharan Africa, Latin America and South/West Asia, and key partners led by IWMI.Fisheries in an agro-ecosystems approach
Fisheries in an agro-ecosystems approachWater, food and livelihoods in River Basins: Basin Focal Projects
This document discusses applying an ecosystem approach to fisheries and aquaculture. It proposes using an agro-ecosystem framework to integrate aquatic production systems like fisheries and aquaculture. This would involve delineating system boundaries, assessing how stakeholders value aquatic resources, and identifying development options under different conditions like rainfed or irrigated areas. Applying this agro-ecosystem approach could help with inter-sectoral integration, stakeholder participation, incentives, knowledge sharing, and estimating carrying capacities to promote sustainable aquatic production systems.Responsible Water Framework
This document outlines a framework to institutionalize responsibility for water usage. It proposes using a vulnerability index and metrics to assess water usage, sustainability, and risks. The framework is intended to help campuses prioritize actions, self-assess water usage, and guide internal policies. Key elements include metrics to measure water demand, responsible siting based on rainfall, water sustainability by reducing external water usage, and embodied energy of water sources. Targets would be set for each metric and knowledge sharing, inclusiveness, and transparency are emphasized.
Water sector challenges in South Africa
This document outlines the key challenges and proposed solutions for South Africa's water sector. On the supply side, challenges include lack of skills, water scarcity, runoff variability, limited resources, floods and droughts, and water quality issues. Solutions involve developing workforce training programs, resource augmentation, infrastructure improvements, and ecosystem rehabilitation. On the demand side, challenges are poverty, population growth, economic development, and insufficient recycling and conservation. Proposed solutions center around expanding access, integrated planning, incentives for alternative uses like reuse and desalination, and public education campaigns. The document stresses an integrated approach across supply and demand to promote water sector sustainability.
Environmental challenges in Naivasha
The document discusses environmental degradation within the Lake Naivasha basin in Kenya. Lake Naivasha provides habitat for wildlife but has undergone rapid land use changes. This has led to increased demand for scarce resources like water and land. Unless mitigation measures are put in place, environmental degradation is likely to increase due to rapid population growth. While flower growing companies and other water users impact the basin, they may lack scientific information to make informed decisions about sustainable resource management. The document calls for stakeholder involvement to address water scarcity issues and prevent potentially dire human consequences.
