2010 Report of the Arab Forum for Environment and Development: "Water: Sustainable Management of a scarce resource"
"Water: Sustainable Management of a scarce resource" is the 3rd of a series of annual reports produced by the Arab Forum for Environment and Development (AFED). It follows the publication of two reports, Arab Environment: Future Challenges in 2008 and Impact of Climate Change on Arab Countries in 2009.
The 2010 report is designed to contribute to the discourse on the sustainable management of water resources in the Arab world and provides critical understanding of water in the region without being overly technical or academic in nature.
The unifying theme is presenting reforms in policies and management to develop a sustainable water sector in Arab countries. Case studies, with stories of successes and failures, are highlighted to disseminate learning.
The report contributes to the ongoing dialogue on the future of water and catalyzes institutional reforms leading to determined action for sustainable water policies in Arab countries.
