In 2019, under the lead of the General Directorate of Water Resources of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development and with the help of the Vietnam Water Partnership, a series of workshops was organised in Vietnam to define strategic actions for advancing on IWRM. The sessions brought together stakeholders from government agencies, NGOs, development partners, civil society, and research institutions to work on solutions to increase efficiency and sustainable development of water resources. The following action was defined as part of that process and identified as a priority action to be included in an action plan.
The purpose of this action is to ensure sustainable water resources development in the Se San and Sre Pok river basins. It aims to achieve this goal by minimising the negative impact of upstream hydropower operations in the country and by raising awareness on sustainable water resources development and IWRM for Vietnamese people living on the border.
