Selected Proceedings of the 10th Stockholm Water Symposium Organised by Stockholm International Water Institute (SIWI). The 10th Stockholm Water Symposium, "Water Security for the 21st Century - Innovative Approaches," examined how to cope with the creeping but predictive water-related problems due to population growth, urbanization and industralization. The Symposium highlighted actions and appropriate innovative solutions in striving towards a transition from problem focus to opportunity focus, and it showed how to proceed to produce more with less water, and with less pollution loads. More than 900 leading experts discussed how key barriers - institutional as well as mental - can be overcome by increasing water awareness, literacy, solidarity and stewardship in society through innovative educational campaigns in an effort to make water everybody's business. Topics explored included innovative water-efficiency practices such as: irrigation with non-conventional water agriculture to minimize plant evaporation social and gender dimensions in water management integrated approaches to land use water resources socio-economic and ecological demands which impact on every community (large or small), and much more. The future-oriented, multi disciplinary Stockholm Water Symposia are convened annually by the Stockholm International Water Institute (SIWI), a scientific, technical and awareness-building organization that contributes to international efforts to combat the escalating global water crisis. SIWI facilitates research, raises understanding and stimulates action on world water issues.
