This book was released on 2009 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este segundo volume aborda as dimensões Político Institucionais da Governança da Água na América Latina e Europa. Compõe o tríptico sobre Governança da Água do projeto GovAgua, e os artigos focalizam aspectos e complexidades que estimulam e impedem mudanças na governança da água e experiências que indicam um potencial de inovação e de transformação. Apresentam-se diferentes posicionamentos e visões sobre os processos em curso nas diferentes realidades que compõem o projeto GovAgua/Alfa. Observa-se que as reformas na governança da água decorrem tanto de pressões internas sobre os recursos hídricos, das ameaças ambientais, da crescente degradação e redução no acesso ás fontes de água, assim como da prioridade dada pela comunidade internacional na redução da pobreza e no atendimento das Metas do Milênio. A governança adequada é um processo complexo, que é afetado pelas especificidades na gestão de cada sociedade, seus costumes, tradições, cultura institucional, práticas político institucionais e capacidade de inovação na gestão de conflitos.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este livro apresenta um olhar direcionado para os atores sociais, os conflitos inerentes à gestão dos recursos hídricos, principalmente na sua condição de escassez, além de discutir a relação intrínseca entre o uso do solo e a gestão da água. A importância da participação de diferentes atores, como preconizado nas legislações mais avançadas sobre o tema, leva à explicitação dos conflitos em fórum adequado e dá visibilidade às dimensões sociais, econômicas e territoriais do uso da água possibilitando equacionar esta questão de forma cooperativa. As mudanças ocorridas no século XX, como o aumento da população, a urbanização, a necessidade de maior produção de alimentos, a ampliação da atividade industrial, entre outras, levaram ao aumento da necessidade de uso de um recurso limitado - água - gerando competição e conflitos. Neste sentido, a escassez gerada pela irregularidade de chuvas, a redução da quantidade e qualidade, o aumento da demanda por água que geram situações de tensão entre os atores sociais e econômicos expressos muitas vezes através dos usos e ocupação dos solos, pode proporcionar uma oportunidade de buscarem soluções cooperativas.

This book was released on 2014-04-24 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides an analytical and facts-based overview on the progress achieved in water security in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) region over during the last decade, and its links to regional development, food security and human well-being. Although the book takes a regional approach, covering a vast of data pertaining to most of the LAC region, some chapters focus on seven countries (Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Mexico and Peru). A full understanding of LAC’s trends progress requires framing this region in the global context: an ever more globalized world where LAC has an increasing geopolitical power and a growing presence in international food markets. The book’s specific objectives are: (1) exploring the improvements and links between water and food security in LAC countries; (2) assessing the role of the socio-economic ‘megatrends’ in LAC, identifying feedback processes between the region’s observed pattern of changes regarding key biophysical, economic and social variables linked to water and food security; and (3) reviewing the critical changes that are taking place in the institutional and governance water spheres, including the role of civil society, which may represent a promising means to advancing towards the goal of improving water security in LAC. The resulting picture shows a region where recent socioeconomic development has led to important advances in the domains of food and water security. Economic growth in LAC and its increasingly important role in international trade are intense in terms of use of natural resources such as land, water and energy. This poses new and important challenges for sustainable development. The reinforcement of national and global governance schemes and their alignment on the improvement of human well-being is and will remain an inescapable prerequisite to the achievement of long-lasting security. Supporting this bold idea with facts and science-based conclusions is the ultimate goal of the book.

Download or read book New Perspectives on Transboundary Water Governance written by Luis Paulo Batista da Silva and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-12-18 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a novel examination of transboundary water governance, drawing on global case studies and applying new theoretical approaches. Excessive consumption and degradation of natural resources can either heighten the risks of conflicts or encourage cooperation within and among countries, and this is particularly pertinent to the governance of water. This book fills a lacuna by providing an interdisciplinary examination of transboundary water governance, presenting a range of novel and emerging theoretical approaches. Acknowledging that issues vary across different regions, the book provides a global view from South and Central America, Africa, Asia, and the Middle East, with the case studies offering civil society and public managers concrete situations that indicate difficulties and successes in water sharing between bordering countries. The volume highlights the links between natural resources, political geography, international politics, and development, with chapters delving into the role of paradiplomacy, the challenges of climate change adaptation, and the interconnections between aquifers and international development. With rising demand for water in the face of climate change, this book aims to stimulate further theoretical, conceptual, and methodological debate in the field of transboundary water governance to ensure peaceful and fair access to shared water resources. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of water resource governance from a wide variety of disciplines, including geography, international relations, global development, and law. It will also be of interest to professionals and policymakers working on natural resource governance and international cooperation.

Download or read book Water Governance in the Arab Region written by United Nations Development Programme. Regional Bureau for Arab States and published by UN. This book was released on 2013 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The publication looks at the alarming current water situation in the Arab countries, with demand for water increasing exponentially as a result of rapid population expansion, changing lifestyles, urbanisation, and the pressures of economic growth. The high dependency of the region on transboundary waters and growing competition over water use further intensifies the water crisis. Furthermore, the repercussions of climate change will exacerbate these ongoing challenges. This water crisis is, at its core, an issue of governance, often managed by fragmented government institutions with inadequate capacities leading to inefficient provision of potable water and sanitation services. Lastly, the Arab region's current political and economic transformations present an opportunity to advance water governance reform, while effective water governance systems can in turn catalyse region-wide aspirations for overall good governance and sustainable human development.

Download or read book Hydropolitics in the Third World written by Arun P. Elhance and published by US Institute of Peace Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With more than 50 percent of the world's landmass covered by river basins shared by two or more states, competition over water resources has always had the potential to spark violence. And growing populations and accelerating demands for fresh water are putting ever greater pressures on already scarce water resources. In this wide-ranging study, Arun Elhance explores the hydropolitics of six of the world's largest river basins. In each case, Elhance examines the basin's physical, economic, and political geography; the possibilities for acute conflict; and efforts to develop bilateral and multilateral agreements for sharing water resources. The case studies lead to some sobering conclusions about impediments to cooperation but also to some encouraging ones--among them, that it may not be possible for Third World states to solve their water problems by going to war, and that eventually even the strongest riparian states are compelled to seek cooperation with their weaker neighbors.
