Summary
On 29 January 2010, The Stimson Center, under the sponsorship of the National Intelligence Council and the US State Department, organized a workshop in Washington, DC, focused on the future of global fresh waterresources and the politics of water resource management. Specific in-country cases included Yemen and Afghanistan, and transboundary cases included the river basins of the Mekong, Ganges, Mahakali, and Indus rivers. Building on this base, the workshop then considered criteria for identifying basins where future tensions or instabilities could emerge and assessed the roles that technological innovations, market mechanisms, river basin institutions, and other policy approaches play in the cooperative management of shared waterresources
