This report on the
Yarlung-Tsangpo-Siang-Brahmaputra-Jamuna River Basin, is a
first attempt at documenting the Brahmaputra as a one river
system and presenting a multi-layered, holistic perspective
of the entire river basin from the perspectives of the four
riparian countries. The genesis of the report is the
stakeholders from the riparian countries themselves, who
highlighted the need for one comprehensive, fact-based
document that provides information on the various aspects of
the entire river basin and that comprehensively captures the
viewpoints of those from all riparian countries. It was felt
that a document of this type would be important for
supporting the dialogue process and policy discussions on
cooperative river basin management. It is natural to expect
that such a document should be co-written by various
stakeholders across the basin, along with other
international experts. The authors are pleased that the
report includes contributions from over ninety authors,
which is a powerful expression of cooperation in and of
itself. The report consolidates the existing wealth of
knowledge and information on the river system. At its heart,
however, are the riparian’s perspectives and insights that
reflect how the river is deeply embedded in the cultures and
the lives of the people living within it. The report
portrays the inextricable interlinkages between those living
in the countries that share the river system: even though
they are divided by international borders, they are tightly
connected through the basin’s water resources. |
