  Sustainable Water Management Sustainable water resource management As climate change intensifies, the sustainable management of water resources has become critical to ensuring water security and mitigating the impacts of scarcity and variability. Sustainable water management encompasses strategies that balance the demands of agriculture, industry, and domestic use with the preservation of ecosystems and natural hydrological cycles. This section explores integrated water resource management, nature-based solutions, innovative technologies, and policy frameworks for equitable and efficient water use. Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) is a comprehensive approach that considers the interconnectedness of water, land, and ecosystems to promote sustainable and equitable water use . IWRM emphasizes the need for coordination among stakeholders, including governments, businesses, and communities, to balance competing demand s. Key Princ...

  Nature-Based Solutions for Adaptation Mangroves planting Nature-based solutions (NbS) harness the power of ecosystems to address climate challenges, providing a sustainable and cost-effective approach to adaptation. These solutions integrate natural processes with human interventions to enhance climate resilience while delivering a range of co-benefits , including biodiversity conservation, carbon sequestration, and improved livelihoods. This section explores the principles of NbS, highlights successful case studies, and examines their role in adapting to a changing climate. Principles of Nature-Based Solutions Nature-based solutions (NbS) emphasize using ecosystems to mitigate climate risks while promoting sustainability, adaptability, and community engagement. A key aspect of these solutions involves restoring and protecting degraded ecosystems, such as forests, wetlands, and mangroves. This restoration enhances ecosystems' ability to absorb carbon, regulate water flows, a...
