Integrated River Basin Management case studies from:
Morocco and Tunisia
Aim of the Study • Stimulating a debate how to preserve and improve the state of freshwater ecosystems • by assessing – quality of existing programmes – policy and legislative responses of governments
Cross cutting principles of IRBM (source: water seminar series (EC + WWF))
Wetlands as part of the water policies • Wetlands have many water management functions (environmental services) : – flood control – water purification – ground water recharge – support livelihoods
• Competencies • Sectors BUT: Integration of environment and environmental services is very weak

Water monitoring in Tunisia and Morocco • Good knowledge of water quantity problems • patchy knowledge of water quality • poor knowledge of the effects of pressures on biological elements and hydrological elements
Responses to Water Quantity Problems (Tunisia) • Legal instruments – full arsenal
• economic instruments – well developed water pricing system
• information instruments – good information provision
Conclusions • Focused on water provision • measures to ensure efficient use of water is quite advanced. Water pricing system is a good example • public participation is unsatisfactory • towards integration of policies, however environmental aspects are at the bottom of the list of priorities
Recommendation • Improve quality and availability of data about the effect of existing pressures on water resources • improve monitoring programme for endangered ecosystems • develop specific regulation for the use of agricultural wastewater • better dam management under the consideration of ecological aspects (mitigation measures) • improve the availability of information regarding water resources ( increase transparency) • improve existing arrangements for public consultation • Develop a holistic wetland policy instead of selected wetlands
