This tool box collates the experience of IWRM experts. Its aim is to support water professionals and policy makers by offering easy access to practical, non- prescriptive advice, information on how to establish integrated water resources management in the real world. It provides a range of tools which users can select and modify according to their needs and each set of tools includes references, organisations, resource persons and relevant websites.
The resource covers:
- legislation, policy and financing structures
- institutional roles of resource managers, service providers, irrigation agencies, utilities, river basin authorities, regulators and other water sector stakeholders. Capacity building supports the functions required for these roles
- management instruments - water resources assessment, demand management, public information and education, conflict resolution, regulatory devices, economic measures and information and communications
