Key Question:

What actions erode that trust? (1) - How do issues of equity and development impact the identification of stakeholders in cases involving hydropower or other revenue generating water infrastructure? (1) - How does asymmetry of power influence water negotiations and how can the negative effects be mitigated? (1) - 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? (3) - What considerations can be given to incorporating collaborative adaptive management (CAM)? What efforts have the parties made to review and adjust a solution or decision over time in light of changing conditions? (2) - 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? (2) - What mechanisms beyond simple allocation can be incorporated into transboundary water agreements to add value and facilitate resolution? (3) - What role(s) can hydropower play in a nation's energy strategy? (1) - What roles can desalination play in a country's national water policy and what energy ecological and water quality considerations ought to go into making such a decision? (1) - What types of benefit sharing models can be used to make desalination more economically feasible and beneficial in water-scarce regions? (1) - Where does the benefit “flow” from a hydropower project and how does that affect implementation and sustainability of the project? (1)
