Resumen
Descripción
Groundwater management is the shared responsibility of federal, provincial and local governments, but there is a lack of integrated planning, budgeting, data sharing, and collective action for groundwater extraction and recharge. Sustainable groundwater use in the Madhesh Province in Nepal requires inclusive and equitable practices that combine water science-informed interventions with a cross-disciplinary approach.
