Key Question:

- How can consultation and cooperation among stakeholders and development partners be better facilitated/managed/fostered? (4) - How can costs for water quality projects be distributed between polluters and beneficiaries? (1) - How can increasing urban water demand be balanced between the needs of the urban population and industry? (1) - How can mutual trust amongst riparians be nurtured? What actions erode that trust? (1) - How does asymmetry of power influence water negotiations and how can the negative effects be mitigated? (3) - To what extent can international actors and movements from civil society influence water management? How and when is this beneficial/detrimental and how can these effects be supported/mitigated? (4) - What effective mechanisms can downstream states/countries use to protect their water related interests/rights? (1) - What kinds of water treaties or agreements between countries can provide sufficient structure and stability to ensure enforceability but also be flexible and adaptable given future uncertainties? (1) - What mechanisms beyond simple allocation can be incorporated into transboundary water agreements to add value and facilitate resolution? (8) - Where does the benefit “flow” from a hydropower project and how does that affect implementation and sustainability of the project? (1)
