Key Question:

- 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? (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? (2) - 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? (1) - What mechanisms beyond simple allocation can be incorporated into transboundary water agreements to add value and facilitate resolution? (1)
