1 Review of transboundary waters in the Arab region: Pressures and management issues Carol Chouchani Cherfane Chief, Water Resources Section Sustainable Development and Productivity Division, ESCWA Workshop on Legal frameworks for cooperation on transboundary waters: Key aspects and opportunities for the Arab countries Tunis, June 2014
2 Arab Regional Context Arid/semi-arid region - precipitation does not exceed the 50 mm/yr in some areas High dependency ratio on external waters Water is shared between Arab States and between Arab and Non-Arab States Territorial sovereignty, occupation Differing energy endowments to support access to water resource There are more shared water resources than generally understood Surface water Groundwater (renewable & non-renewable resources)

30 Key Pressures and Management Concerns for Sustainable Development for Shared Water Resources Population Growth Unemployment Food Security Rural to Urban Migration Conflict, crisis, occupation and insecurity Water Security Freshwater Scarcity Water Quality Water resource use & efficiency for sustainable resource management Despite assessment, more joint monitoring & management needed Different considerations for renewable & non-renewable resources when considering over-extraction of non-renewable groundwater resources. Water is shared between countries and communities. Most Arab States are water-stressed States facing growing socio-economic development pressures, making progress towards sustainable development a greater challenge.
