Synthesis report on the application of
institutional and economic instruments in the water sector - Arid and Semi-arid
regions
by J.M.
Berland and N. Amorsi, International Office for Water
The deliverable summarizes the work undertaken in Task 2 of
Work Package 2 of INECO, which aimed at reviewing the
problems and experiences associated with institutional and
economic interventions in the water sector in non EU world
countries, focusing particularly in arid and semi-arid
regions. The review aimed at highlighting drawbacks,
accomplishments, advantages and disadvantages of
institutional and economic reforms in the water sector,
through the review of practices and structures adopted in
several non-EU countries: Argentina, Australia, California,
Canada, Chile, Israel and Japan, as well as the context
(cultural and political) in which water policy is pursued
and implemented. The objective is to provide examples of
strategic approaches towards Integrated Water Resource
Management, in order to initiate a discussion on alternative
options that could be implemented in Southern Mediterranean
countries.
