Water security attracts attention because it is linked to a growing consensus that we are facing an emerging water crisis
Two emerging dangers: First, national competition amongst users of water intensifies. Second, water is the ultimate fugitive resource, traversing borders.
Conflicts over water use will result in security issues, at the local (security-of-access) and regional scales (international peace and national security).

Resilient cities are important !
Cities:
• generate 85% of global GDP,
• consume 75% of the world’s natural
resources and
• account for 80% of global
greenhouse gas emissions.
Today 7.3 billion people live and work in only 7.6%
of the global land mass.

Shared waters and interdependence
No such thing as managing water for a single purpose – all water management is multi-objective and as such is by definition based on conflicting interests.

• Acknowledge that the water sector is extremely diverse in its physical features, users composition, institutional responses … and they keep changing over time;
• Initiate change only when there is a powerful, articulated need for reform;
• Have a clear strategy for involving all interested parties in the discussions of reform, and for addressing fears seriously, with effective, understandable information;
• Its not about money - implementation is challenging ; We spend more time and effort on resolving problems of a institutional nature than on problems of a technical nature …
• Building water security is so often about changing minds, attitudes, and a mosaic of values
