Overview

Searches on the Internet show water insecurity exists and grows in developed and developing democracies. A realistic way of obtaining and maintaining regional water security remains unknown. Doing Regional Water Security explains a way to obtain water security. To obtain security that is tailored to fit their regional water community, people think and act as water stakeholders/voters in their community. They obtain input from other participants, namely guidance from a facilitative/interdisciplinary leader, advice from discipline specialists, and assistance from support staff. After identifying the contexts of water security, stakeholders/voters and other participants obtain security by making decisions and taking actions in a sequence of stages and steps in the region and its water problem-sheds. The process is complex and difficult. It requires time and persistence. Yet, security can be obtained. Participants record lessons learned which are shared with people elsewhere who want to pursue water security. Various individuals and groups are likely to find the regional water security process useful. They include people who experience or anticipate water insecurity; legislative bodies and executives which provide needed legal authority and financial resources; water security practitioners; water technology and related organizations; and nongovernmental environmental organizations. These entities exist within or cross local, state/provincial, federal and/or national boundaries. Water security researchers review lessons learned and conduct independent research on the regional water security process. Graduate and undergraduate students learn and apply lessons learned and research conclusions which they employ during their careers, thereby increasing future water security in developed and developing democracies.
