Forum for Policy Dialogue on Water Conflicts in IndiaOrganizer: Forum for Policy Dialogue on Water Conflicts in India

Venue: WWF India Conference Hall, Lodhi Road, New Delhi

Description:

The Forum is a platform of organizations and individuals many of whom have made significant contributions to the water sector discourse in the country in terms of policy, research and practice. Presently the Forum is working on a few conflicts with a view to resolve them and also learn from that process. It has set up resource centres in Kerala and Orissa and is in the process of documenting conflicts in the north- East.

This report is the result of the work of the first of the two groups set up in 2009 by the Forum on two important issues, namely,

  1. Water Entitlements and Allocation for Livelihoods and Ecosystem Needs
  2. Institutional and Legal Issues Related to Water Conflict Resolution 

We are glad to release this report of the first group comprising K. J. Joy, Priya Sangameshwaran, Shripad Dharmadhikari, A. Latha, Prof. M.K Prasad and K. P. Soma. We hope that this report would provide some inputs into the ongoing process of the review of the National Water Policy.

A panel discussion on “The report and the National Water Policy Review” is also organised on this occassion.
