Abstract:	"The Mar del Plata Anniversary Seminar used the occasion that twenty years have now past since the 1977 UN Water Conference. The aim was to analyze the impact that the Mar del Plata Conference has had on improving water management, and in what way ensuing thinking has continued to change our water perception, and to address the main issues of the next 30 years. The Seminar was to build a bridge between on the one hand successes and failures of past decades, and on the other the conceptual development, efforts and strategies needed for the next thirty years, and policy options available to avert the looming water crisis. This introductory article gives an overview over the contributions to the Seminar and an analysis of the results."
