Feature: New ways of thinking about sustainable water planning
SEI’s Marisa Escobar, Alison Dyke and Hector Angarita introduce the SEI Initiative on Water Beyond Boundaries and how it will help to break down barriers to sustainable water management for all.
"Ecological crises have led to the recognition of legal rights for some rivers around the world. While pressure on ecosystems and water resources remains, this represents a shift in thinking, to including non-humans as entities in their own right. This is an important moment to consider how this shift in thinking might be applied more widely to participation in decision making and to consider how greater recognition of the needs and rights of non-humans might also benefit underrepresented communities in decision making."
- Alison Dyke, researcher, on why this initiative is so important
