Resumen
Descripción
The Global Water Partnership (GWP) was
established by the Swedish International Development Agency
(SIDA), the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), and
the World Bank in 1996 in response to international concern
about deteriorating freshwater resources. The initial
mission of the GWP was to 'support countries in the
sustainable management of their water resources' by
means of an advocacy network based on the principles of
integrated water resources management (IWRM). Its initial
objectives were: 1) to clearly establish the principles of
sustainable water resources management; 2) to identify gaps
and stimulate partners to meet critical needs within their
available human and financial resources; 3) to support
action at the local, national, regional, or river basin
level that follows the principles of sustainable water
resources management; and 4) to help match needs to
available resources. The GWP was chosen for a Global Program
Review (GPR) because it provides lessons for the design and
operation of advocacy networks for water-related activities
in member countries. Because the governance and management
of the GWP changed hands in 2008, the findings of this
review do not reflect on the current governance and
management of the partnership.
