Abstract | Over the past decades, integrated water resource management (IWRM) has gained prominence as a powerful water management concept. It is an idea that promotes the equitable and sustainable management of a catchment by all who live and share its waters. A closer look at a current research programme aimed at testing IWRM in practice reveals that implementation is much more complex than initially thought. [authors abstract] |
