Second DAF Seminar: Lessons Learned from 50 years in the Waterbox
Abstract:In the Third World Water Development Report a little more than five years ago, the concept of the "waterbox" and the "decision maker" was given global recognition by the UN. This 300 page review on "water in a changing world" also contained a four-page section on the way forward for people inside and outside the waterbox, in order to address water issues in a changing world: Making water an integral part of all planning and management decisions by "deciding and acting".
In his 50 years in the "water box" and as "decision maker", Dr. Mogens Dyhr-Nielsen found that the toolkit in the waterbox has improved dramatically from unit hydrographs for dam design to decision support systems for basin management.
