Within the course, students will be exposed to topics such as: the historical, cultural and socio-political contexts of water governance; the range of administrative arrangements for developing, allocating, managing and protecting water resources; water and environmental asset valuation methods; the cross-jurisdictional, multi-level and multi-institutional processes for water governance; the intersecting and interrelated interests around water resource use and frameworks for stakeholder consultation; examination of frameworks and economic instruments for addressing increasingly complex water security issues such as allocation and trade; and recent remediation programs to counter land and water degradation. |
