Abstract

Current approaches to catchment management are fragmented, hence it is important to develop better value solutions focusing on circular economy and sustainability. I will discuss the integrated water resource management with a focus on the open source ecosystem & cross-sectoral stakeholders’ engagement. The use of innovative technologies helps us not only to build more efficient or "smart" water systems; it enables us to build a new type of auditable framework based on trust and transparency. Whereas the design of modular and decentralised solutions can be faster developed, deployed and replicated.
