Author(s): Bipasha Bose

Abstract
Water resource management is a significant problem for developing nations since the combination of fast population expansion urbanisation and climate change worsens the shortage and deterioration of water supplies. Implementing holistic strategies for water resource management is crucial to guarantee long-term and sustainable development as well as the welfare of communities. This abstract focusses on the essential tactics and frameworks used in emerging nations to efficiently oversee water resources. In developing nations the effective management of water resources requires a holistic strategy that takes into account the whole water cycle including supply distribution waste management and conservation. The key focus of this method is the implementation of Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) which prioritises the synchronised development and administration of water land and associated resources to optimise economic and social well-being while ensuring the long-term viability of crucial ecosystems. Essential elements of comprehensive water management are creating strong institutional structures adopting participatory governance models and encouraging adaptive management methods. Efficient water governance requires the participation of many stakeholders such as local communities governments and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) to guarantee fair decision-making that considers the requirements of all users. Developing nations have distinct obstacles including constrained fiscal resources insufficient infrastructure and a dearth of technical proficiency. Nevertheless the use of cost-effective technology community-driven water management initiatives and global collaboration may effectively surmount these obstacles. The study also highlights the need of enhancing organisational capabilities gathering data and implementing monitoring systems to facilitate well-informed decision-making and strategic planning for the long term. Ultimately despite the existence of obstacles the implementation of integrated and participatory methods for managing water resources may result in sustainable water utilisation greater public health and increased ability to withstand the effects of climate change in poor nations. This abstract emphasises the need of ongoing investment in water management systems and the significance of customising methods to suit the particular socio-economic and environmental circumstances of emerging countries.
