Water basins serveas a basis for

regional cooperation and development.

• On track to meet the MDG drinking water target: only 26 of the 53 countries

• Water related diseases: more than 80% Æ deaths for children under 5

• Deficient agricultural water management: e.g. only 10% of irrigable lands are actually irrigated in WA.

• Hydropower development < 7% of the potential

• 5-25% of GDP due to droughts and floods in affected countries

• Climate impacts are greatest in poor countries.
