12th Stockholm Water Symposium
Balancing Competing Water Uses - Present Status and New Prospects
August 12-15, 2002
Abstract Submittal Deadline: February 1, 2002
Water is the key to socio-economic development and quality of life.
Therefore, it is an essential factor to be properly linked to other relevant
development factors. During the past era, expanding water needs have been
met by water resources development projects. This era is now coming to its
end; in some regions water supply can only be marginally increased for
hydrologic and/or economic reasons. While in the past the efforts have been
to maximize supply, the goal is increasingly turning into best possible
outcome per drop of available water. There is a need for a fundamental shift
in thinking and to develop the ability to balance internally competing water
users' interests. In the new era, additional needs will have to be carefully
articulated, and water quality to be given adequate attention.
Prioritization between different water uses is getting necessary.
The Symposium aims to highlight the present status of the situation in
different parts of the world, to debate what will be needed to perform the
necessary balancing and to improve water use performance, and to indicate
new prospects through cases where balancing is already practiced or planned.
Paper and posters are now being sought and are due by February 1, 2002, on
the following:
* The Importance of Environmental Resources to Secure Socio-economic
Development - Water as a Catalyst for Development
* Water Pollution Abatement Within the Industrial Sector
* Water, Poverty Alleviation and Social Programs
* Criteria for Priorities Between Competing Water Interests in a
Catchment
* Stakeholder Participation in the Decision Making - Institutional
Forms
* Water Pricing
* Integrating the Water and Energy Sectors
* Urban Dynamics, Livable Cities and Water
In addition, presentations are sought for the SIWI Seminar for Young Water
Professionals. "Water and Sustainable Development - How to Ensure
Development Without Compromising Sustainability?"
