Turning the Tide: Improving Water Resource Management in the Philippines
Published By: Senate of the Philippines on eSS | Published Date: August, 30 , 2011Water is arguably the most
important natural resource
and because it is scarce, its
optimal usage and proper
management must be
ensured.
Water governance in the
Philippines, however, has
become too complex with
so many institutions
involved, all with different
hierarchical coverage,
varied mandates and
representing the interests
of diverse constituencies.
It is thus worthwhile to
look at the proposed
reform measures to
improve the country’s
regulatory and
institutional frameworks
for sustainable water
resource management. [PB-11-03]. URL:[http://www.senate.gov.ph/publications/PB%202011-08%20-%20Turning%20the%20Tide.pdf].
