Abstract | The main aims of the KAWAD Water Resources Audit (WRA) were to assess the status of water resources in the project watersheds and to provide a framework for more productive, sustainable and/or equitable use of water resources. This report summarises the main findings and recommendations of the study. A major feature of the study was the consolidation, groundtruthing and analysis of water-related information using a GIS database. This involved collecting data from a wide range of different sources and carrying out field surveys to update and validate spatial and non-spatial data. |
