Water Security: “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, environment
and economies” [Grey and Sadoff
2007]
Food Security: “when all people at all
times have access to sufficient, safe,
nutritious food to maintain a healthy
and active life” *WHO 1996]
Energy Security: “the uninterrupted
physical availability [of energy] at a
price which is affordable, while
respecting environment concerns”
[IEA 2011]

International water law finds its foundation within the rules of public international law, and thus is intertwined with those ideals contained in the UN Charter -- maintaining international peace and security, enhancing regional cooperation, preventing threats to the peace, and advancing the fundamental freedoms of all (UN Charter). International watercourses law provides a framework for managing the sustainability of transboundary waters that cross national borders and has evolved through a combination of customary law (state practice) and the codification and progressive development efforts undertaken by the UN, non-governmental organisations, private institutions, national and international judicial decisions, and the resolutions and recommendations of international organizations.Water law serves three key functions:• It defines and identifies the legal rights and obligations tied to water use (broadly defined) and provides the prescriptive parameters for resource development and management;• It provides tools for ensuring the continuous integrity of the regime– that is, through monitoring and assessment of compliance and implementation, dispute prevention, and settlement;• It allows for modifications of the existing regime, in order to be able to adapt to changing needs and circumstances.
5 constituent elements: (i) scope;(ii ) substantive rules; (iii) procedural rules; (iv) institutional mechanisms (v) dispute settlement. This analytical framework is a useful tool in the more rigorous examination of any transboundary watercourse regime.(iii) Procedural rules -- provide the means through which the substantive rules are implemented and provide a framework for the ongoing peaceful management of the watercourse regime(iv) Institutional mechanisms -- such as international watercourse joint bodies and commissions, or meetings of the parties (v) Dispute settlement -- represent the logical compliance component of the transboundary watercourse regime and serve to ensure the peaceful implementation of agreed (legal) regimes concerning international watercourses through negotiation, enquiry, mediation, conciliation, arbitration, judicial settlement, resort to regional agencies or alternative arrangements as agreedThis analytical framework is a useful tool in the more rigorous examination of any transboundary watercourse regime.
The most significant treaty on international transboundary water law is the 1997 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Non-Navigational Uses of International Watercourses (UN WC).The rules of international law that have evolved from both customary and treaty law now form an identifiable corpus of substantive and procedural rules, and the overall transboundary regime can best be understood through
The real wildcard for political and social unrest in the Middle East over the next twenty years is not war, terrorism or revolution—it is water. Conventional security threats dominate public debate and government thinking, but water is a true game-changer in Middle Eastern politics.
