Abstract

Pakistan ranks third among countries facing acute water shortage and could reach absolute water scarcity by 2025. Sindh, being the lower riparian province of Pakistan, is facing grave surface water shortages and problems of soil and groundwater salinity, exacerbated by mismanagement. Our four-year research project used a participatory case study approach to explore issues and options for improving groundwater management with water managers and users.
