For the 13th meeting of the Commission on Sustainable Development (CSD-13), the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida) commissioned the Stockholm International Water Institute (SIWI) to produce “Let it Reign: The New Water Paradigm for Global Food Security”. The report presents recommendations for policy and decision makers with regard to sustainable food production, sustainable food consumption and ecological sustainability. The topic addressed in this report is an issue identified as being of very high priority for Sida. The views put forward in this report, on the other hand, are expressed solely on behalf of the authors. Collaborating partners for the report have been the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), IUCN – The World Conservation Union and International Water Management Institute (IWMI).

Transboundary rivers are increasingly being drawn upon to meet competing demands. This publication provides an overview of the world’s shared water resources and guidance on managing these resources cooperatively. It describes the range of potential costs and benefits of cooperation, and of non-cooperation, and principles and mechanisms for sharing the benefits that derive from water. Using case studies from around the world, it presents both challenges and real world solutions for constructing the legal frameworks, institutions, management processes and financing needed to govern transboundary waters more equitably and sustainably.

Payments for watershed services is an emerging innovation in water management. This guide offers a hands-on explanation of the issues that need to be addressed when establishing these payment schemes. It explains what watershed services are and what their value is. It then highlights the technical, financial, legal and social aspects of establishing payments schemes for maintaining or restoring watershed services critical for downstream water security.

Climate change is here and will be with us for the long-term. The challenge facing water professionals is how to make decisions in the face of this new uncertainty. This book outlines a new management approach that moves beyond technical quick fixes towards a more adaptive style that is inclusive and innovative. Only by thinking, working and learning together can we tackle the impacts on water resources and uncertainties induced by climate change.

This guide offers practical advice for the implementation of environmental flows in the river basins of the world. It explains how to assess flow requirements, change the legal and financial framework, and involve stakeholders in negotiations. ‘Flow’ sets out a path from conflict over limited water resources and environmental degradation to a water management system that reduces poverty, ensures healthy rivers and shares water equitably.
