Enhancing groundwater management - GCP/GLO/277/GEF

Groundwater provides a large portion of the increasing demand for water in all sectors. It also constitutes the main source of water in water-scarce regions, acts as a buffer against climatic extremes, and sustains crucial ecosystems services. The objective of the project was to embed a process of improved groundwater governance, to halt the current trend of resource depletion and degradation, and lead to positive environmental, social and economic benefits. In so doing, the project aimed to acc elerate the adoption of improved groundwater resource governance, from resource management institutions, to millions of individual users.
