The principles of Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) and Integrated River Basin Management (IRBM) have been supported by  practitioners, policy makers and stakeholders across the world for a long time.

River Basin Organizations (RBO) are basin level entities that can bring together stakeholders and coordinate, envision, plan and implement these integrated plans at the basin scale (or aquifer/subbasin/watershed scale). By implication, RBOs must be a bottom-up democratic bodies, upscaling solutions.
