17 Collaborative Governance & Institutional Design Alternatives for the Angat River Basin: Anu-ano ang ating alternatibo? Anu-ano ang ating gabayang pambatas, pambansa at panginternational? Dr Francisco A. Magno Director, Robredo Institute of Governance, De La Salle University

18 Integrated Water Resource Management (Magkakatugmang Pamamahala ng Ating Katubigan) Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) is a process which promotes the coordinated development and management of water, land and related resources in order to maximise economic and social welfare in an equitable manner without compromising the sustainability of vital ecosystems. (Global Water Partnership, 2014)

19 Water governance is putting IWRM into practice (World Water Council 2003). We face a governance crisis, rather than a water crisis. (World Water Council 2003).

20 Sama-samang Pamamahala (Collaborative Governance) A governing arrangement where one or more public agencies directly engage non-state stakeholders in a collective decision-making process that is formal, consensus-oriented, and deliberative and that aims to make or implement public policy or manage public programs or assets. - Ansell & Gash, 2008
