Along the COP21 Climate Summit NGOs formulated the Paris Pact on water and adaptation in climate change in the basins of rivers, lakes, and aquifers. The purpose of this “Paris Pact” is to provide recommendations of actions that should be undertaken without delay at the most relevant scale for water management adaptation to climate change – i.e., the basins of lakes, rivers, and aquifers. The Pact also calls for actions of basin organisations and other relevant institutions (e.g., governments, international organisations, donors, local authorities, civil society and companies).
