Community-Based Water Resource Management (CB-WRM)

Community-Based Water Resource Management (CB-WRM) is an approach where local communities actively participate in managing their water resources. It involves residents working together to monitor, maintain, and make decisions about water use, ensuring sustainable and equitable access. CB-WRM emphasizes local knowledge, shared responsibility, and collective action, often integrating traditional practices with modern techniques. This approach helps prevent water shortages, protect quality, and adapt to environmental changes while empowering communities to sustainably manage their water resources for current and future needs.
