Book Dams and Water Transfers   An Overview   Barrages et Transferts d Eau   Apercu

Download or read book Dams and Water Transfers An Overview Barrages et Transferts d Eau Apercu written by Cigb Icold and published by ICOLD Bulletins Series. This book was released on 2021-03-31 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present Bulletin presents a complete response from the 'Technical Committee of ICOLD on Dams and Water Transfer (CDWT)' to the Terms of Reference. It starts with related global information, brings out related efforts made in countries with completely differing climate, economy, population distribution etc. about present status within and between river basins & countries - both surplus and or deficit, while recognizing the crucial role played by dams in water transfer to needy regions. It then enumerates guidelines followed in considering various options, while identifying geographical issues, limited by political territories & legal issues like water treaties. Essentially then, it dwells on possible need, potential and problems in water transfers that must be handled to overcome B/C issues faced by needy countries. In order to assist concerned professionals, the Bulletin finally elaborates on objections raised by different stake-holders in the subject and provides answers generated globally. The on-going debate world-over about WRD versus environmental impacts is then dealt with to help Member-countries overcome various issues. Le présent Bulletin présente une réponse complète du « Comité Technique sur les barrages et les transferts d'eau ». Il commence par des informations mondiales, fait ressortir les efforts déployés dans des pays au climat, à l'économie, à la répartition de la population, etc. complètement différents sur l'état actuel au sein et entre les bassins fluviaux et les pays - à la fois excédentaire et / ou déficitaire, tout en reconnaissant le rôle crucial joué par les barrages dans le transfert d'eau vers les régions nécessiteuses. Il énumère ensuite les lignes directrices suivies pour considérer diverses options, tout en identifiant les problèmes géographiques, limités par les territoires politiques et les questions juridiques comme les traités sur l'eau. Essentiellement, il s'attarde donc sur les besoins, le potentiel et les problèmes possibles des transferts d'eau qui doivent être traités pour surmonter les problèmes auxquels sont confrontés les pays dans le besoin. Afin d'aider les professionnels concernés, le Bulletin élabore enfin les objections soulevées par les différents acteurs du sujet et apporte des réponses générées globalement. Le débat en cours dans le monde entier par rapport aux impacts environnementaux est ensuite traité pour aider les pays membres à surmonter divers problèmes.

Download or read book Dams and Development written by World Commission on Dams and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-13 with total page 834 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the year 2000, the world had built more than 45,000 large dams to irrigate crops, generate power, control floods in wet times and store water in dry times. Yet, in the last century, large dams also disrupted the ecology of half the world's rivers, displaced tens of millions of people from their homes and left nations burdened with debt. Their impacts have inevitably generated growing controversy and conflicts. Resolving their role in meeting water and energy needs is vital for the future and illustrates the complex development challenges that face our societies. The Report of the World Commission on Dams: - is the product of an unprecedented global public policy effort to bring governments, the private sector and civil society together in one process - provides the first comprehensive global and independent review of the performance and impacts of dams - presents a new framework for water and energy resources development - develops an agenda of seven strategic priorities with corresponding criteria and guidelines for future decision-making. Challenging our assumptions, the Commission sets before us the hard, rigorous and clear-eyed evidence of exactly why nations decide to build dams and how dams can affect human, plant and animal life, for better or for worse. Dams and Development: A New Framework for Decision-Making is vital reading on the future of dams as well as the changing development context where new voices, choices and options leave little room for a business-as-usual scenario.

Download or read book Large Dams written by Anthony H. J. Dorcey and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1996 the World Bank Operations Evaluation Department completed an internal review of 50 large dams funded by the World Bank. IUCN-The World Conservation Union and the World Bank agreed to jointly host a workshop in April 1997 to discuss the findings of the review and their implications for a more in-depth study. The workshop broke new ground by bringing together representatives from governments, the private sector, international financial institutions and civil society organizations to address three issues: critical advances needed in knowledge and practice, methodologies and approaches required to achieve these advances, and proposals for a follow-up process involving all stakeholders.
