Integrated Water Management

Integrated Water Management is a coordinated approach to managing water resources—such as rivers, lakes, and groundwater—holistically and sustainably. It involves planning and balancing the needs of all users, including agriculture, industry, households, and ecosystems, while protecting water quality and ensuring future availability. By considering social, economic, and environmental factors together, this method aims to optimize water use, reduce conflicts, and adapt to challenges like climate change and population growth. Ultimately, it promotes the efficient, equitable, and sustainable use of water resources for current and future generations.
