Hi - I think establishing some kind of river basin organisation. This may either be quite formal and “top down” politically driven or “bottom up” based on actors at the local level who have a desire to work together to improve the river ecology or to achieve equitable sharing. Ultimately it will be necessary to have good trusted science that the actors can use to inform decisions. As some others have said this is not easy and you can’t just implement this overnight! There are a number of ingredients:
trusted science
Champions
funding
some kind of bridging organisation
establishment of common goals
Targets and monitoring
demonstration projects
Perhaps the another thing related to champions is passion!
