Environmental Challenges

  • Growing freshwater storage gap due to declining natural storage (glaciers, wetlands, groundwater) and underinvestment in built storage maintenance.
  • Increasing hydrological variability and extremes due to climate change.
  • Inadequate current approaches to freshwater storage planning and management.
  • Data and analysis gaps hindering informed decision-making.
  • Inter-sectoral coordination challenges.
  • Weak institutional capacity.
  • Funding constraints.
  • Misaligned incentives and political economy considerations.
Mitigation Strategies
  • Proposes an Integrated Storage Planning Framework for a more strategic and robust approach.
  • Emphasizes a systems perspective integrating natural and built storage.
  • Advocates for considering alternatives to storage (demand management, alternative supply).
  • Highlights the importance of multi-stakeholder engagement.
  • Recommends strengthening institutional capacity and addressing funding constraints.
  • Suggests addressing misaligned incentives and political economy factors.
