Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) is a process which promotes the coordinated development and management of water, land and related. WASA began the Adopt A River Programme in order to implement the short-term initiatives which would realise IWRM in local watersheds. The project has been ongoing for the past three years. This paper reviews the successes of the programme in light of WASA’s IWRM Plan and also in terms of social, economic and environmental benefits to the watersheds in which work has been completed.
