Governance
Establishing an effective, efficient and widely accepted governance In a context of major economic, demographic and climate changes, growing competition between water uses and the enduring frailty of access to water resources tend to provoke “water crisis”, which are often crisis of governance. Governments must adapt to stricter requirements with limited financial and human resources. Today they may find themselves faced with a loss of trust from citizens who are better informed and interested in having a significant influence on political decisions.
