Abstract | A guiding document to addressing Integrated Water Resource Management in implementation of the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) WASH strategy 2016-2030. This document was developed by the Watershed, Empowering Citizens Strategic Partnership programme to provide the Ministry of Foreign Affairs guidance on linking Integrated Water Resource Management in implementing (IWRM) its WASH strategy 2016-2030. It builds on the policies of MFA and is combined with the knowledge and publications of the Watershed Programme (www.watershed.nl), and international literature. Following the introductory chapter, chapter two gives the conceptual frameworks around WASH and WRM, and the linkages between them. The second chapter is intended mainly as a reference and is particularly useful for colleagues who are less familiar with the intrinsic aspects of WASH. Readers who are well versed in the sector, may decide to go straight to chapter three. Chapter three is the essence of this document and contains guiding questions that help identify opportunities to strengthen links with IWRM processes in various stages of the MFA project cycle. Each of a project’s steps (such as the proposal phase, inception phase etc.) is briefly discussed, questions posed and points of attention identified. It is not the intention of this document to provide exhaustive checklists of everything that needs to be done everywhere. Instead, it recognises that there is no one-size fits all, and it hopes that the process outlined will help identify the priority areas to address. This document builds on the policies of MFA and is combined with the knowledge and publications of the Watershed Programme (www.watershed.nl), and international literature.
