Reporting and using information

This chapter describes the crucial role of reporting in the monitoring and assessment cycle. Information about water resources contributes to environmental reporting and may inform planning relevant for water-using sectors. Reporting includes the production of reports and other modes of disseminating information, such as application programme interface newsletters (API) and online applications. These are all instrumental in ensuring the dissemination of interpreted data, and the use of information produced to inform management decisions between targeted stakeholders. There are several reporting obligations which vary according to the type of international convention or transboundary agreement.
