Title
GIWA - Global International Waters Assessment
Description
Global International Waters Assessment, UNEP/GEF GIWA, is providing high quality water information and is producing a comprehensive and integrated global assessment of international waters comprising marine, coastal and freshwater areas, and surface waters as well as groundwaters. GIWA will encompass the ecological status of and the causes of environmental problems of shared water areas in the world. Causal chain analyses will be an essential tool used to identify and better understand links between perceived problems and their societal root causes. Scenarios of the future condition of the world's water resources will also be developed. Methods are also developed for analysing policy options with a view to providing sound scientific advice to the GEF, other decision-makers and to managers concerned with water resources.
