Description:
Water insecurity has become a global challenge. Scattered evidence of climate change impacts on water security is emerging, and actions taken to manage climate risks are under-reported. This report suggests that management focus should be based on socioecological zones rather than political boundaries because climate risks vary according to these zones. The report presents a framework for action based on a risk management approach at the socioecological zone level.
