Résumé

This book, part of the Environmental Policy and Law Paper, was elaborated by Grethel Aguilar, Regional Director of IUCN-Mesoamerica and Alejandro Iza, Director of the IUCN Environmental Law Centre. It uses international law as a starting point and explains how its provision and principles can be used as a mechanism for a good management of shared basins and the promotion of good water governance at the transboundary level. The aim of this book is to help to strengthen the capacities of decision-makers and water stakeholders, promote the cooperation between States that share water resources, and eventually contribute to further regional integration within the context of a political border that must be understood as a space to test and to forge cooperation and in which water has a fundamental role to play. The book provides most important legal and institutional features of water management at the global level but with special emphasis in Central America.
