Key Question:

- How can consultation and cooperation among stakeholders and development partners be better facilitated/managed/fostered? (8) - How can government be dis/incentivized to offer an inclusive planning process? (4) - How can mutual trust amongst riparians be nurtured? What actions erode that trust? (5) - How can packages or options that link issues creatively or build on possible technology innovations be employed to create non-zero sum choices within negotiations that include water resources? (2) - How do issues of equity and development impact the identification of stakeholders in cases involving hydropower or other revenue generating water infrastructure? (6) - How do national policies influence water use at the local level? (1) - How does asymmetry of power influence water negotiations and how can the negative effects be mitigated? (10) - 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? (9) - What approaches are most beneficial for rapidly growing cities in the developing world to link water management to sustainable urban growth strategy? (1) - What calculations and considerations should be investigated by countries looking to harness additional hydropower? Which potential outcomes should be investigated or identified? (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? (7) - What effective mechanisms can downstream states/countries use to protect their water related interests/rights? (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? (9) - What mechanisms beyond simple allocation can be incorporated into transboundary water agreements to add value and facilitate resolution? (15) - What role(s) can hydropower play in a nation's energy strategy? (3) - Where does the benefit “flow” from a hydropower project and how does that affect implementation and sustainability of the project? (6)
