The Sustainable Development Network
(SDN) calls for elevating the environment into upstream
processes such as policy, programmatic, and investment
dialogue. In its 2002 environment strategy, the Bank
committed to use strategic environmental assessments (SEAs),
an environmental planning tool for improving decision-making
at the strategic level of decision-making, policies,
legislation, strategies, plans, and programs (PLSPP), and as
a process for improving public policy design and good
governance of natural resources. SEAs share many concepts
and characteristics as integrated water resources management
(IWRM), the accepted paradigm for efficient, equitable, and
sustainable management of water resources since the 1990s.
IWRM recognizes the dual nature of the environment as both a
water using sector and a provider of services that maintains
water resources for all sectors. The overall goal of this
report is to help water resources and environment
professionals use SEAs to effectively implement the
principles of IWRM. It recommends a framework for expanding
use of SEAs to mainstream environmental considerations in
water resources policy, legislative and, institutional
reforms, planning and development lending decision-making as
well as for enabling adaptation in the water sector. |
