Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Asian Water Development Outlook (AWDO) 2020 assesses national water security across Asia and the Pacific, focusing on five key dimensions: rural, economic, urban, environmental, and water-related disaster. Despite considerable achievements in Asia and the Pacific since the AWDO 2013 edition, 1.5 billion people in rural areas and 0.6 billion in urban areas still lack adequate water supply and sanitation. Sound water management and access to reliable service delivery remain vital to inclusive economic growth and social well-being, especially after the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. This edition includes two new sections highlighting the importance of finance and governance to water security as well as case studies demonstrating how the AWDO has influenced policy development in four countries.

Book Synopsis Asian Perspectives on Water Policy by : Cecilia Tortajada
Download or read book Asian Perspectives on Water Policy written by Cecilia Tortajada and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asian countries are not homogenous. They are in different stages of social and economic development, with cultural conditions and institutional and legal frameworks varying from one country to another. Therefore, how water can be successfully managed differs from one country to another. The book provides authoritative analyses of how water is being managed in different Asian countries, ranging from the world’s most populous countries like China and India to a city state like Singapore and an island country like Fiji. It also analyses in depth several wide ranging issues like terrorism, human rights, water-energy nexus, and roles of media, along with comprehensive discussions of legal, institutional and regulatory frameworks in an Asian water management context. The overall focus is on how water can be managed efficiently, cost-effectively and equitably in various Asian countries. This book was based on a special issue of the International Journal of Water Resources Development.
Book Synopsis Water Quality and Environmental Management in Asia by : H. Utsumi
Download or read book Water Quality and Environmental Management in Asia written by H. Utsumi and published by IWA Publishing (International Water Assoc). This book was released on 2002-05-31 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selected Proceedings of Asian Waterqual 2001, the IWA Asia-Pacific Regional Conference, held in Fukuoka, Japan, 12-15 September 2001. The world's growing population and its rising water consumption are greatly increasing the pressure on water resources; growing wastewater discharges and expanding use of chemicals are severely affecting the water environment. The new millennium confronts the water management profession and society in general with a set of challenges of unprecedented magnitude and complexity, and many of these worldwide problems are seen at their most acute in Asia. The 8th Asian Waterqual conference provided a major forum to address these issues; these selected proceedings contain 73 high-quality papers chosen after peer review. Subjects covered include: drinking water quality, treatment and distribution; wastewater treatment and reuse; environmental remediation, ecotoxicology in the aquatic environment; hazard assessment and control of microbiology; hazard assessment of micropollutants and endocrine disruptors; water quality monitoring and modeling; ecological modeling and simulation; and water resources management and protection. These papers tackle the challenges of water management, reporting scientific and technological innovations and the institutional and administrative strategies required. These proceedings will prove a major information resource for any scientist, engineer, practitioner or regulator with an interest in water quality and environmental management.

Book Synopsis Water Quality Policy and Management in Asia by : Cecilia Tortajada
Download or read book Water Quality Policy and Management in Asia written by Cecilia Tortajada and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-10-14 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asia's 48 countries have an estimated 1.757 billion urban population and 2.4 billion people in rural areas (or approximately 60 per cent of the global population). Divided into central, eastern, southern, south-eastern and western regions, the continent is also extremely heterogeneous in terms of water quality conditions. The policies and management practices vary significantly from one country to another, and even within one country, depending on specific economic, political, social, environmental, legal and institutional factors. In order to appreciate the complexities associated with water quality policy and management, it is important to acknowledge the multiplicity of interrelated and often conflicting events, issues, actors and interests, both within and outside the water sector that impact them. This complexity, alongside institutional inability for systematic and coordinated collaboration, are potent reasons as to why, in the second decade of the 21st century, formulation and implementation of efficient water quality management policies benefitting humankind and the environment have still not been achieved. The book was originally published as a special issue of the International Journal of Water Resources Development.

Book Synopsis Climate Risks to Water Security by : Hemant Ojha
Download or read book Climate Risks to Water Security written by Hemant Ojha and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-01-07 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Asia and the Pacific, climate change is now a well-recognised risk to water security but responses to this risk are either under reported, or continue to be guided by the incremental or business as usual approaches. Water policy still tends to remain too narrow and fragmented, compared to the multi-sectoral and cross-scalar nature of risks to water security. What’s more, current water security debates tend to be framed in discipline specific or academic ways, failing to understand decision making and problem-solving contexts within which policy actors and partitioners have to operate on a daily basis. Much of the efforts to date has focussed on assessing and predicting the risks in the context of increasing levels of uncertainty. There is still limited analysis of emerging practices of risks assessment and mitigation in different contexts in Asia and the Pacific. Going beyond the national scales and focussing on several socio-ecological zones, this book captures stories written by engaged scholars on recent attempts to develop cross-sectoral and cross-scaler solutions to assess and mitigate risks to water security across Asia and the Pacific. Identifying lessons from successes and failures, it highlights management and strategic lessons that water and climate leaders of Asia and the Pacific need to consider. This book showcases reflective and analytical thought pieces written by key actors in the climate and water spaces. Several critical socio-ecological zones are covered – from Pakistan in the west to pacific islands in the east. The chapters clearly identify strategies for improvement based on the analysis of emerging responses to climate risks to water security and gaps in current practices. The book will include an editorial introduction and a final synthesis chapter to ensure clear articulation of common themes and to highlight the overall messages of the book.
