BACKGROUND

LAUNCHED BY UNDP IN JANUARY 2009, THE WATER GOVERNANCE PROGRAMME FOR ARAB STATES (WGP-AS) IS AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE EXTENSIVE EFFORTS EXERTED BY THE UNDP- REGIONAL BUREAU FOR ARAB STATES (RBAS) TO ASSIST ARAB COUNTRIES IN ACHIEVING THE MILLENNIUM DEVELOPMENT GOALS (MDGS); PARTICULARLY THE WATER RELATED SET TARGETS FOR MDG 7 ON ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY. THE WGP-AS ADDRESSES WATER CHALLENGES RESULTING FROM THE GEOGRAPHIC AND CLIMATIC CONDITIONS, LACK OF PEACE AND SECURITY, GOVERNANCE, POPULATION GROWTH AND INCREASING WATER DEMAND, INADEQUATE ACCESS TO CLEAN WATER AND SANITATION, INSUFFICIENT CAPACITY AND LIMITED RESOURCES, IN ADDITION TO DEFICIENCIES IN DATA AND MONITORING TOOLS

NOTING THE NEAR ABSENCE OF INFORMATION ON ONE OF THE MOST ARID REGIONS OF THE WORLD IN MOST OF THE GLOBAL PUBLICATIONS, THE WGP-AS IS PLANNING TO PRODUCE A REPORT ENTITLED " ARAB WATER REPORT: TOWARDS IMPROVED WATER GOVERNANCE".

THE MAIN OBJECTIVE OF THIS REPORT IS TO FILL THIS GAP AND PROVIDE THE ARAB COUNTRIES AND THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY AT LARGE WITH A CLOSE-UP LOOK ON THE WATER SITUATION IN THE REGION. THIS REPORT WILL BE DESIGNED TO MOVE BEYOND THE TRADITIONAL INVENTORIES OF AVAILABILITY, USES, ACCESSIBILITY, DEPENDENCY, ETC. OF WATER RESOURCES AND ADDRESS THE WATER GOVERNANCE ISSUES SUCH AS PARTICIPATION, TRANSPARENCY, EQUITY, RULE OF LAW, ACCOUNTABILITY, ETC. IN TERMS OF ACHIEVEMENTS, CONSTRAINTS, CHALLENGES, OPPORTUNITIES, PROJECTIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS.

THE REPORT WILL ALSO ASSESS THE EXTENT OF INCORPORATING SOCIO-ECONOMIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS IN WATER RESOURCES MANAGEMENT. IT IS BELIEVED THAT THE PRODUCTION OF A REPORT THAT ILLUSTRATES THE DEVELOPMENTAL AND INTEGRATION ASPECTS OF WATER RESOURCE MANAGEMENT IS A REAL CHALLENGE; HOWEVER, IT WILL BE A SIGNIFICANT CONTRIBUTION TO COUNTRIES OF THE REGION, STAKEHOLDERS AND PARTNERS. THE AWR IS PLANNED TO BE LAUNCHED BY THE END OF 2011. ITS THEME “TOWARDS IMPROVED GOVERNANCE” IS OF HIGHEST PRIORITY IN THE ARAB REGION. IT IS ALSO AT THE HEART OF THE WGP-AS AREAS OF FOCUS AND RESPONDS TO THE ANALYSIS OF THE 2006 HUMAN DEVELOPMENT REPORT THAT “THIS WATER CRISIS IS LARGELY OUR OWN MAKING. IT HAS RESULTED NOT FROM THE

NATURAL LIMITATIONS OF THE WATER SUPPLY OR LACK OF FINANCING AND APPROPRIATE TECHNOLOGIES, EVEN THOUGH THESE ARE IMPORTANT FACTORS BUT RATHER FROM PROFOUND FAILURES IN WATER GOVERNANCE”.

AS A PREPARATORY STEP, A HIGH LEVEL ADVISORY BOARD (AB) HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED CONSISTING OF A GROUP OF EMINENT THINKERS AND SUPPORTED BY HIGH LEVEL EXPERTS TO ADVISE ON SUBSTANTIVE MATTERS AND GUIDE THE PREPARATION OF THE REPORT. THE AB CONVENED ITS FIRST MEETING IN CAIRO IN JULY 14-15, 2009.

THE AWR PREPARATION PROCESS WILL FOLLOW THE SAME GUIDELINES USED BY UNDP IN THE PREPARATION OF THE HUMAN DEVELOPMENT REPORTS (HDR) http://HTTP://HDR.UNDP.ORG/EXTERNAL/TOOLKIT/INDEX.HTML.

BRIEFLY, THE PROCESS WOULD START BY DEVELOPING THE SCOPE OF THE REPORT, IDENTIFYING CONCEPT PAPERS, AND OUTLINING THE CHAPTERS ACCORDING TO THE GUIDANCE OF EMINENT THINKERS IN THE AB. THIS WOULD BE FOLLOWED BY ENGAGING A LEAD AUTHOR (LA) TO PLAN AND IMPLEMENT THE STEPS OF DEVELOPING THE REPORT. A TEAM OF WRITERS, RESEARCHERS, AND CONSULTANTS FOR THE PREPARATION OF TECHNICAL BACKGROUND PAPERS WOULD THEN BE ENGAGED. THE LA WOULD DRAFT THE AWR IN AN INTEGRATED STYLE BASED ON THE BACKGROUND PAPERS. THE REPORT DRAFTS WILL BE REVIEWED BY THE AB AND PEER GROUP OF SELECTED EXPERTS BEFORE THE FINAL PRODUCTION AND LAUNCH STAGES.
