摘要
Water resource challenges are increasingly assuming a global face for governments, organizations, and citizens. Groundwater systems provides drinking water and the rivers are overtaxed by pollution. The globalization of water management is of utmost importance with increasing pollution, natural disasters, urbanization, and population growth. As a result, global water initiatives are developed in order to induce a broad and inclusive form of global water governance.
