River Basin Organisations (RBOs)

River Basin Organisations (RBOs) are institutions that coordinate the management and use of water resources within a specific river basin. They bring together government agencies, local communities, and stakeholders to ensure sustainable and equitable water use, prevent conflicts, and protect ecosystems. RBOs facilitate cooperation across regions and sectors, develop policies, monitor water quality and flow, and promote practices that balance economic needs with environmental health. Essentially, they serve as a centralized body to manage a river's resources holistically, ensuring the long-term availability and health of water systems for all users.
