Workshop 8 (synthesis): managing urban development and industrial growth from a drainage basin perspective.
Urban development and industrial growth give rise to the two problems of insidious and growing pollution, and an over-exploitation of water resources. To solve these problems, various solutions have been promoted, such as multi-stakeholder dialogues, establishment of river basin committees, strong regulation, compensation for water-exporting basins and convincing politicians and the public of the need for change.
