INKOMATI CATCHMENT MANAGEMENT AGENCY

Values Vital attributes Threats Context for the management of IWMA

INKOMATI CATCHMENT MANAGEMENT AGENCY Acknowledge interdependence of responsibilities for caring for the resource Decisions, actions and outcomes subject to evaluation against goals, indicators and timeframes Management is adaptive, open to critique and outcomes driven. Decisions within our mandate are justified on basis of best available social, technical, economic, environmental and governance knowledge

INKOMATI CATCHMENT MANAGEMENT AGENCY Livelihood is linked to health of rivers and tributaries Rainfall is variable in space and time Rivers are important source of water for Swaziland and Mozambique The catchment is a critical element of internationally renowned tourist attraction area There are still large disparities in access to water and current water allocations do not meet domestic and economic needs.

INKOMATI CATCHMENT MANAGEMENT AGENCY Public discontent, scepticism Poor land and water use planning Non-compliance by developers and mining Lack of enforcement Non-implementation of the reserve Insufficient water use charges Shortage of skilled technical personnel

INKOMATI CATCHMENT MANAGEMENT AGENCY

Inkomati economy is highly dependent on water Irrigation based agriculture and forestry provide most jobs in the catchment Poor municipal waste management results in decreased water quality and fitness for use Poorly managed mining activities impact on the quality of both ground and surface water There is poor enforcement and variable monitoring of water quality, quantity and illegal use

INKOMATI CATCHMENT MANAGEMENT AGENCY We share the Inkomati water resources, and responsibility for their management, amongst ourselves and with our neighbours. Our decision making environment, including delegated functions, enables collaborative action towards equity, sustainability and efficiency in a continually evolving socioeconomic system. We manage the resource adaptively, co-operatively and progressively to achieve social, economic and environmental justice, and promote healthy living

INKOMATI CATCHMENT MANAGEMENT AGENCY The Reserve - preliminary International obligations Strategic use Inter-catchment transfers Allocable water
