Ecosystems can be managed so as to sustain water availability and its quality – services provided by ecosystems – and thereby help achieve water security. The continued availability of water (of sufficient quantity and quality) depends on the continued healthy functioning of the ecosystems that supply it, while the ecosystems themselves are dependent on receiving sufficient water. This can be summed up as ‘nature for water security; water security for nature’, a phrase that neatly encapsulates the linkages that decision-makers have to take into account.
