Proceedings of the Workshop on the Use of Economic Principles for the Integrated Management of Freshwater Resources

The purpose of the workshop was to provide a practical introduction to how economic principles and tools could be used to improve the environmental sustainability of water use. The workshop was aimed at water and environmental managers and policymakers, with the objective being that participants would return to their countries and promote the use of economic principles and tools. That is, the workshop was not designed to teach participants the details of how to design and apply economic tools but rather to indicate their benefits.
