Inclusiveness: What to Rethink Hydropolitics How we do things

Rethinking Transboundary Water Governance (TWG) in Nile Basin Knowledge exchange systems for TWG predominantly disciplinary and multidisciplinary

Rethinking Development Degrowth development for meaningful inclusion and integration in TWG

Rethinking Development Contin… Reframe cooperative framework for inclusive and integrative development

Rethinking Sustainable Development and Sustainability If there is no environmental sustainability, there can no sustainable infrastructure or society

What Sustainability Means Expanding future action through meaningful and effective environmental stewardship

Rethinking the Precautionary Principle (PP) PP simply requires precaution in decision making. Issues in the tansboundary basin are largely ecological and environmental

Precautionary Principle Cont... PP creates avenues for wisdom to be resorted to rather than power and knowledge

Climate Change Risk in Water, Food and Energy Policies Explore policy opportunities to deal with uncertainties

Climate Change Risk Cont… Expand range of knowledge for learning, knowledge exchange and problem-solving

Adaptation to Climate Change Rethink Adaptation in view of alternative innovative approaches

Rethinking Science Predominantly disciplinary; to a an extent multidisciplinary knowledge exchange

Rethinking Research Sensitive to Inclusive Development and Environmental Sustainability

Rethinking Hydropolitics and Biopolitics of Nile Basin Need for a new hydropolitics of inclusiveness and integration

Rethinking Gender Inclusion Regional Gender Action Plans and Gender Action Network

Innovative Approaches to TWG All sensitive to environmental sustainability

Rethinking Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Need to rethink usefulness, and inclusive and integrative value of EIA

Rethinking EIA Cont... Measures ability of a parameter to respond to a loss in Environmental quality

Rethinking EIA Cont... Need to give it a chance. It is less manipulable by political and corporate interests

What Lessons Learned Sustainability is sustainable development

What Lessons Learned? Contn... Replace EIA with ESA to enhance inclusiveness and integration

Best Practices Inclusive Regional Climate Change Impact and Adaptation Research Framework

What are the Challenges? Existing policies are for financialisation of water

Conclusions Innavate regional climate impact and adaptation research framework Adopt and popularise the new innovative approaches to TWG END
