Program River Basin Management in the view of civic activists
Organizer Green Future
Date/Venue Sep. 4(Wed.) 13:30-15:30/ EXCO 322A

Watershed water management is being pushed forward with the implementation of the Integrated Water Management Policy, but from the water activist's point of view, this is not working properly. As a result, discussions were set up to suggest the correct watershed management direction and to prepare specific plans.

  • Regarding the launching of the National Water Management Committee, the issue of barrage is the biggest issue and how to solve these problems and how to resolve conflicts among stakeholders with different positions will be important.
  • Capacity Building is the key for civil society organizations to develop specialties and to prepare to lead the group by gathering voice on policies. For future generations, civil society organizations need to focus on environmental education and nurture instructors. NGOs cooperate and communicate with local governments, and water quality management and watershed management in cooperation with local governments are the points of success.
  • Sustainable water management is about discussing how to use water without breaking the flow of the watershed. I think the Watershed Management Committee will be a forum for public discussion and communication.
