dc.description.abstract From p. 4: "This policy brief shows that management of water and ecosystems is changing. It is becoming more integrated (cross-sectoral), flexible and expanding in its focus from human uses of freshwater as a technical issue to the role of freshwater for human development. In particular, this policy brief illustrates how the concept of resilience can help this shift in perspective in water management. From management being focused on the aspiration to control change there is now a move towards a perspective that strives for sustaining and enhancing the capacity of both human and natural systems to cope with, adapt to, and shape change. This latter perspective is seen in this policy brief’s featured case studies from both developed and developing countries." en_US
