Water

Authors: Israel Bionyi, Ama Lorenz, Cherotich Kenei, Bob Koigi, Martin Walsh, Marta Rychlewski
Editors: Judith Orland, Ama Lorenz, Murat Suner

Water is a highly contested resource. Some say it is the new oil and predict that conflicts about access to water will be on the rise in the near future. Reason for us to take a closer look at policy making in the water sector. We map crisis areas, highlight innovative ways to minimize risk from floods in Pakistan, dissect what is at stake in cross-border water resource management in the Middle East and get an idea how to tackle corruption in the water sector in Zambia. Guiding question is what role do policy makers and civil society can play in ensuring access to water.
