| Abstract | This learning-to-share portfolio Unit 7 is reacting on the new Water Legislation in South Africa. It consists of 12 sheets on the following topics: some, for all, forever, dealing with the consequences of the South African Constitution and Bill of Rights for the people living in the Sand River Catchement; an ecosystem approach to water management; equity: sharing limited water fairly; water to meet our obligations and fulfil our rights; the Basic Human Needs Rserve; schedule 1 and licenced water use; issues of allocation; institutions that support sharing; multiple sources for water security in rural areas; how much is enough?; small scale productive uses of water. Every topic is explained in one sheet, and includes drawings, clarifying texts, and citations from the legislation. |
