* '''NEW PORTAL: [[Decision & Assessment Tools|<font size="2">Decision & Assessment Tools</font>]]''' -Introducing a new Akvopedia portal to guide our users through critical water and sanitation choices. The [[Decision & Assessment Tools]] portal has 21 tools, some of which originate from our other portals and some brand new to Akvopedia, consolidated into the new portal for convenience. With so much information on the web coming from the thousands of water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) organisations around the world, users need to know how best to navigate the information stream.

* '''NEW ARTICLE PAGE: [[Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM)|<font size="2">Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM)</font>]]''' - [[Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM)|IWRM]] is based on the understanding that water resources are an integral component of the ecosystem, a natural resource, and a social and economic good. Managers, whether in the government or private sectors, have to make difficult decisions on water allocation. More and more they have to apportion diminishing supplies between ever-increasing demands. Drivers such as demographic and climatic changes further increase the stress on water resources.
