Summary
"Berg Water Project is part of the World Bank Working Paper series. These papers are published to communicate the results of the Bank's ongoing research and to stimulate public discussion." "The past decade has witnessed a major global shift in thinking about water resources, including the role of water infrastructure in sustainable development. To balance better the social, economic, and environmental consequences in the development and management of large darns, infrastructure strategies must complement strategies for water, environment, and energy security and reduce vulnerability in water resource systems resulting from climate change. 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. This case study identifies current communication practices, draws insights from experience, and offers advice on capacity building in an operational setting and effectively integrating governance and anti-corruption reforms and sustainability improvements into the project cycle." "World Bank Working Papers are available individually or on standing order. This World Bank Working Paper series is also available online through the World Bank e-library (www.worldbank.org/newelibrary)."--BOOK JACKET.
