Abstract

The Yellow River is suffered from water shortage. Rapid population increase, unplanned urbanization, intensive industrial. Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) is a promising approach in ensuring sustainable management. It entails management of water for various purposes and not for a single purpose which therefore involves different regions aiming at achieving sustainable water resources management. This paper seeks to evaluate recent efforts to implement in IWRM in the Yellow River basin. The paper concludes that reforms such as public participation at local levels, recognition of water as both an economic and a social good, putting IWRM within the larger context of Integrated Natural Resource Management would improve IWRM in the basin.
