The initial mission of the GWP was to 'support countries in the sustainable management of their water resources' by means of an advocacy network based on the principles of integrated water resources management (IWRM). Its initial objectives were: 1) to clearly establish the principles of sustainable water resources management; 2) to identify gaps and stimulate partners to meet critical needs within their available human and financial resources; 3) to support action at the local, national, regional, or river basin level that follows the principles of sustainable water resources management; and 4) to help match needs to available resources. The GWP was chosen for a Global Program Review (GPR) because it provides lessons for the design and operation of advocacy networks for water-related activities in member countries. Because the governance and management of the GWP changed hands in 2008, the findings of this review do not reflect on the current governance and management of the partnership. 2017-08-17T18:12:24Z 2017-08-17T18:12:24Z 2010-07-02 Book http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/776821468331144910/The-global-water-partnership 978-1-60244-148-4 http://hdl.handle.net/10986/27912 English en_US Global Program Review;Volume 4, Issue 3 CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank Washington, DC: World Bank Publications & Research :: Publication Publications & Research
