Resumen
Descripción
Kosovo is a small and young state that
gained an interim United Nations (UN)-administered status in
the wake of the Dayton peace accord only in 1999; it
declared independence in 2008. Compared to neighboring
countries, it is still lacking in its basic infrastructure
and its administrative and technical skills. In addition,
with the onset of the War in Yugoslavia in 1992 most
investment and normal maintenance came to a standstill. Much
of the publicly owned infrastructure fell into disrepair or
was vandalized, but private investments led to a
construction boom which, however, is leading to many
environmental problems. The government is committed to
reconstruction and to the development of a peaceful state.
It also intends to align with EU policies. Thus, the study
has the specific objectives to: (i) assist the government to
improve its river basin planning and management by providing
(for demonstration purposes) a replicable tool and
simulation model for integrated river basin planning and
management; and (ii) support the government in its
identification of priority measures of structural and
non-structural nature to help strengthen the water resources
sector performance. The source(s) for the financing of the
identified projects will need to be identified further by
the Government as the World Bank has not committed to
involvement in the sector.
