This rethinking aims to better balance the social, economic, and environmental performance aspects in the development and management of large dams. Additionally, it reinforces efforts to combat poverty by ensuring more equitable access to water and energy services. There is also growing appreciation of how broad-based policy reforms come into play and influence decisions around issues related to dams. Apart from democratization of the development process itself, it is increasingly recognized that infrastructure strategies must complement strategies for water, environment, and energy security; they must also address emerging concerns to reduce vulnerability in water resource systems due to the probability of climate change. Communication comes to the forefront in modern approaches to dam planning and management in several respects. Communication is central to multi-stakeholder dialogue and partnerships at all levels needed to achieve sustainability and governance reform in water resource management and infrastructure provision. At the same time, communication drives the advocacy to mobilize political will and public support for beneficial change and continuous improvement in practices. This case study emphasizes that it is important not only to mobilize all opportunities to reconcile water demand and supply in river basins facing increasing levels of water stress, but also to effectively integrate governance and anticorruption reforms and sustainability improvements into all stages of the planning and project cycle-adding value for all stakeholders, not just for some of them.CC BY 3.0 IGOACCESS TO WATERAESTHETICSALLOCATION OF WATERAQUATIC ECOSYSTEMSAUGMENTATIONAVAILABLE WATERAVAILABLE WATER RESOURCESBOREHOLESBULK SUPPLYBULK WATERBULK WATER SUPPLYCAPACITY BUILDINGCATCHMENT AREACATCHMENT LEVELCATCHMENT MANAGEMENTCATCHMENT MANAGEMENT AGENCIESCATCHMENTSCHANNELCHEMISTRYCIVIL SOCIETYCLIMATE CHANGECOMMERCIAL AGRICULTURECOMMUNITY INFRASTRUCTURECONFLUENCECONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTCOST OF WATERCROP PRODUCTIONDAM CONSTRUCTIONDAM PLANNINGDECISION MAKERSDECISION MAKINGDEMAND FOR WATERDESALINATIONDIVERSIONDOMESTIC USEDOMESTIC USERSDOWNSTREAM FACEDOWNSTREAM USERSDOWNSTREAM WATER USERSDROUGHTEFFICIENT USE OF WATEREFFLUENTENVIRONMENTAL FLOWSENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENTENVIRONMENTAL ISSUESENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENTENVIRONMENTAL MONITORINGEQUITABLE ACCESSEXPORTFARM DAMSFARMERSFARMINGFARMING PRACTICESFORESTRYFRESH WATERFRESHWATERGOVERNANCE ARRANGEMENTSGROUNDWATERGROUNDWATER SOURCESHIGH WATERHOUSEHOLDSIMPORTSIMPOUNDMENTINDUSTRIAL GROWTHIRRIGATIONIRRIGATION BOARDSIRRIGATION SYSTEMSIRRIGATION WATERIRRIGATION WATER SUPPLYIRRIGATORSJOINT VENTURELAND USELARGE DAMSLEAKAGELOCAL AUTHORITIESLOCAL CONTRACTORSLOCAL WATERMANAGING WATER RESOURCESMARGINAL COSTMONITORING PROGRAMMUNICIPAL BOUNDARIESMUNICIPAL SERVICESMUNICIPAL WATERMUNICIPAL WATER SUPPLYMUNICIPALITIESNATIONAL WATER POLICYNATIONAL WATER RESEARCHNATIONAL WATER RESOURCESNATURAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENTPERFORMANCE INDICATORSPIPEPIPE SYSTEMPIPED WATERPIPELINEPIPELINESPIPESPLUMBINGPOLLUTIONPOPULATION GROWTHPOTABLE WATERPRESSUREPROGRAMSPROJECT MANAGEMENTPROVINCIAL AGENCIESPROVINCIAL GOVERNMENTPUBLIC PARTICIPATIONPUBLIC SECTOR GOVERNANCEPUBLIC WATERPUMP STATIONPUMPINGPUMPING STATIONSQUALITY STANDARDSQUANTITY OF WATERRAINFALLRAW WATERRECYCLINGREGULATORY SYSTEMSRESERVOIRSRETICULATIONRIPARIANRIPARIAN ZONESRIVER BASINRIVER BASIN MANAGEMENTRIVER BASINSRIVER CATCHMENTRIVER FLOWRIVER SYSTEMRIVER WATERRIVERSRURAL WATERRURAL WATER SUPPLYSAFE DRINKING WATERSAFE WATERSALINITYSANITATIONSANITATION SERVICESSCARCE WATERSCARCE WATER RESOURCESSEAWATERSERVICE IMPROVEMENTSERVICE PROVIDERSSERVICE PROVISIONSOILSSTORAGE CAPACITYSURFACE WATERSURFACE WATER RESOURCESSUSTAINABLE USETAPSTOILETSTOWNTOWNSTRANSPARENCYTREATMENT PLANTSURBAN WATERUSAGE OF WATERUSE OF WATERVALVESWASTEWATERWATER AFFAIRSWATER ALLOCATIONWATER AVAILABILITYWATER BOARDSWATER BODIESWATER CHARGESWATER CONSERVATIONWATER DEMANDWATER DEMAND MANAGEMENTWATER DEPARTMENTWATER GOVERNANCEWATER INFRASTRUCTUREWATER LEGISLATIONWATER MANAGEMENTWATER MARKETSWATER NEEDWATER PARTNERSHIPWATER POLICYWATER PRICINGWATER PROFESSIONALSWATER PROJECTSWATER QUALITYWATER QUALITY MANAGEMENTWATER QUALITY MANAGEMENT STRATEGIESWATER QUALITY MONITORINGWATER QUALITY MONITORING ACTIVITIESWATER QUANTITYWATER RECOVERYWATER REQUIREMENTSWATER RESEARCHWATER RESOURCEWATER RESOURCE MANAGEMENTWATER RESOURCESWATER RESOURCES MANAGEMENTWATER RIGHTSWATER SAVINGSWATER SCARCITYWATER SCHEMESWATER SECTORWATER SECTOR REFORMWATER SERVICEWATER SERVICE DELIVERYWATER SERVICE PROVIDERSWATER SERVICE PROVISIONWATER SERVICESWATER STORAGEWATER STRATEGYWATER SUPPLYWATER SUPPLY MANAGEMENTWATER SUPPLY PROJECTSWATER SUPPLY SCHEMEWATER SUPPLY SYSTEMWATER TRANSFERWATER TRANSFER SCHEMESWATER TRANSFERSWATER USEWATER USERWATER USERSWATER USESWATER YIELDWATERCOURSESWorld Bank10.1596/978-0-8213-8414-5
