Climate Change & Impacts

Climate change poses substantial future risks to societies and ecosystems alike. With higher intensity weather and climate extremes and changes in their duration, impacts on water resources need to be well understood.

Integrated Resources Management

IWRM is a process which promotes the coordinated development and management of water, land and related resources, to maximize the resultant economic and social welfare equitably without impairing ecosystems. We support IWRM in a holistic manner.
