This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water scarcity is a fundamental challenge to sustainable development in arid and semi-arid regions. The problem in ESCWA countries is exacerbated by the fact that most of the water resources are shared and originate from outside the region. (The seven major shared surface watercourses have an average annual discharge of 195 billion cubic meters.) This study reviews case studies in shared water resources management in an effort to improve integrated water resources management (IWRM) in the region--Publisher's description.

Arafat and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The water-energy nexus, on the one hand, refers to the relationship between the water used for the production of energy, as a renewable resource for hydroelectricity production, and the energy/electricity generation process itself. On the other hand, it refers to the energy consumed in the extraction, treatment, distribution and disposal of different types of water. ESCWA is implementing a UN Development Account Project on "Developing the Capacities of ESCWA Member Countries to Address the Water and Energy Nexus for Achieving Sustainable Developing Goals". The DA project targets to strengthen the capacity of ESCWA member countries to achieve an integrated and sustainable management of water and energy resources to contribute to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The project is implemented through two parallel and complementary tracks. The first track targets high-level officials in ministries responsible for water and energy while The second track focuses on water and energy public service providers.

This book was released on 2009-03-20 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part of OECD Water Resources and Sanitation Set - Buy all four reports and save over 30% on buying separately! Water is a key prerequisite for human and economic development, and for maintaining ecosystems. However, billions of people lack access to water and sanitation services, mainly due to poor governance and inadequate investment and maintenance. The situation is becoming more urgent due to increasing pressure, competition and even conflict over the use of water resources. The OECD has been working over the last two years to address these challenges. The results are summarised in this report, which emphasises the economic and financial aspects of water resources management and water service provision, the need for an integrated approach (including governance considerations) to address these complex policy challenges, and the importance of establishing a firm evidence base to support policy development and implementation. This report examines: strategic financial planning for water supply and sanitation that balances the key sources of revenues for the water sector – the “3Ts” of taxes, tariffs and transfers; the design and implementation of water pricing strategies that balance financial sustainability with other policy objectives; recent developments in private sector participation in the water sector; and trends and the future outlook of water use in agriculture. It considers both developing and OECD countries and offers concrete recommendations and checklists for action. The report is an invaluable resource for policy makers, academics, NGOs and all others interested in the challenges facing the water sector today.
