Approximately 40 per cent of the world’s population lives in river and lake basins that comprise two or more countries, and perhaps even more significantly, over 90 per cent lives in countries that share basins. The existing 263 transboundary2 lake and river basins cover nearly one half of the Earth’s land surface and account for an estimated 60 per cent of global freshwater flow. A total of 145 States include territory within such basins, and 30 countries lie entirely within them. In addition, about 2 billion people worldwide depend on groundwater, which includes approximately 300 transboundary aquifer systems.

With a steadily growing world population, and mankind’s eternal quest for higher and higher standards of living, there is no doubt that the demands on our natural resources, both nonrenewable and renewable, will continue to augment well into the foreseeable future. Water, a renewable resource, will be no exception to this general trend.
