IWRM guidelines
Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) guidelines provide a comprehensive approach to managing water resources sustainably. They emphasize coordinating different uses like drinking, agriculture, industry, and ecosystems to ensure water is used efficiently and fairly. The guidelines promote stakeholder participation, data sharing, and applying scientific principles to make informed decisions. By considering social, economic, and environmental factors together, IWRM aims to prevent water shortages, reduce conflicts, and protect water quality for current and future needs. Essentially, they offer a balanced framework to manage water wisely, benefiting communities and ecosystems alike.
