Negotiating Middle East water management: Lessons from other international river basins

Research output: Contribution to conferencePaperpeer-review

Abstract

Increasing and competing demands among countries for water, often complicated by domestic sector competition, is a major cause of international dispute. This article focuses on negotiation approaches for dealing with these conflicts, mechanisms for resolving them, and frameworks for managing shared waters. The experience gained from analysis of thirteen case studies of international river basins are applied to Arab-Israeli transboundary water issues in the Jordan Valley and the mountain aquifers.
