Linking Good Water Governance And Financing
Submitted by Alan William Hall on 05-April-2012 - 0 Comments | 2 files | 1163 reads
Until recently it was rare for water professionals to consider financing issues. Water advocacy and plans were often aspirational – neglecting to show where the money would come from, how activities would be financed or who would pay for them. It was as if finance was somebody else’s problem. Likewise, people from the finance sector have not given great importance to water related issues.

Guidance on Water and Adaptation to Climate Change
Submitted by Maria Vink on 15-December-2009 - 0 Comments | 0 file | 1048 readsWater resources are vulnerable and already affected by climate change and variability with wide-ranging consequences for societies, their health, economies and the natural environment. Many countries in the UNECE region have already experienced severe impacts from extreme events and disasters. It is likely that anthropogenic climate change (change caused by human activities) will exacerbate the severity and frequency of those events, as well as affecting the region’s water resources in other ways, e.g. through changing precipitation patterns. The need is to adapt now.
