This session at World Water Week explores key lessons learned from applying source-to-sea management in a variety of contexts around the world and aims to highlight next step in developing this innovative approach.
Source-to-sea is a highly promising holistic management approach since it highlights the upstream and downstream linkages between actions on land (e.g., urban development, agriculture and forestry) and across freshwater, coastal, and marine ecosystems. Through fostering participation and collaboration between stakeholders, it seeks to prioritize actions that hold the greatest potential for positive impacts across the whole system.
