Lessons learned
Improve coordination and exchange of information and resources between the public and private actors dealing with water managementState level as a linking actor between the Federal normative role and the Municipal and water users’ operating responsibilitiesIn stead regulatory bodies, a coordination-oriented approach proves to yield good results, measurable in terms of financial and technical efficiency improvementAchieving IWRM requires to be open to re-engineering and continuous learning, where an action leads to the transformation of processes and institutionsDeal consciously with the dynamic equilibrium in the development and use of the assets for sustainability: natural, infrastructure, financial, human, technological, institutional-legal and cultural resourcesInvesting in institutional strengthening is instrumental: better processes, institutions and methods can take the sector’s capacity to a higher and measurable level of performance
