Integrated River Basin Management: The Latin American Experience
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
River basin organizations are young institutions in Latin America, and current analyses indicate that further evolution is necessary before they can be effective in the planning and management of water resources, especially in terms of decentralization and capacity building. This book reviews
the status of the implementation of the concept of integrated river basin management in several Latin American countries. It includes comparative studies from other parts of the world to present a broader perspective of the situation. The authors are leading experts from the region, and have the
latest information on the status of water management techniques in the various river basins of Latin America.
