Historical evolution of water resource management using adaptive governance model

Nations continue confronting Water Resource (WR) related issues, including WR scarcity, contamination, and excessive groundwater use. This study examines the WR situation and asserts that governance is the root of the WR-related problems. The analysis of the existing WR policy structure reveals that the control-command methodology is a static technique, which is inadequate for addressing the uncertainties within the WR sector. An Adaptable Governance Model (AGM) is presented, emphasizing the processes of learning and involvement. The learning procedure prevents the repetition of errors, while participation guarantees an array of data, both of which are essential for effective WR-related administration.
