34 “Lack of cross-sectoral linkages leads to uncoordinated water resource development and management resulting in conflict, waste and unsustainable systems.” --UNDP Capacity Building for Integrated Water Resources Management Mod 7 Ses 1

35  Solution: Integrated Water Resources Management Also known as:  Comprehensive Watershed Management  Integrated Coastal Area Management  Integrated River Basin Management  Integrated Catchment Management Definition: Systematic, participatory process for the sustainable development, allocation and monitoring of water resource use in the context of social, economic and environmental objectives Mod 7 Ses 1

36 SPHERE and WHO Context  SPHERE Water Supply Standard 2 calls for “promotion of protected sources.”  SPHERE Shelter and Settlement Standard 6 key indicator: “natural resources are managed to meet the ongoing needs of displaced and host populations.”  WHO Guidelines for Safe Recreational Waters promote “Integrated Coastal Area Management.” Mod 7 Ses 1
