Executed by the United Nations University Institute for Water, Environment and Health (UNU-INWEH) and implemented by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the project was launched in 2009 and covers the five main areas in the GEF International Waters portfolio: surface water; lakes; groundwater; large marine ecosystems; and deep oceans. A working group was formed to address each of these areas. The project’s objective is to enhance — through knowledge integration and information-sharing tools — the use of science in the GEF IW focal area to strengthen priority setting, knowledge sharing and results-based adaptive management in current and future projects.1-32en©The United Nations University, 2012river basinstransboundary problemstransboundary wateradaptive managementclimate changeriver basin managementReportANZSRC::090509 Water Resources EngineeringANZSRC::090505 Infrastructure Engineering and Asset ManagementANZSRC::050205 Environmental ManagementANZSRC::160802 Environmental Sociology
