Abstract
The technologies and methods for integrated planning and management of water resource systemshave matured considerably over the past decades. However, relatively few of them have been actually and regularlyapplied in real world decisional processes. We feel this is essentially due to a general lack of engagementof stakeholders and decision makers at every stage of the decisional process. Innovative methodologies andtools to improve participation are presented, with focus on water reservoir systems
