Abstract — There are over 263 international river basins in the world covering almost half of the Earth ’ s land surface.
Over 145 nations are riparians to one or more of these basins, some sharing with up to 17 countries. Challenges facing
the Mekong River Basin are prompting increased focus on water conflict prevention and management and regional
collaboration. Discarding the water wars myth, research and case studies have shown that greater institutional
capacity can prevent water conflicts, leading to enhanced cooperation in international basins. Strategic partnerships
and conflict prevention activities such as training and “ hotspot ” mapping are current examples of collaborative
cooperation in the Mekong Basin. Regional cooperation is driving most collaborative efforts including the emergence
of civil society and stakeholder participatory processes at the basin level. Examples from the Nile and Columbia River
Basins provide evidence from outside the Mekong region supporting claims that cooperative management institutions
and collaborative processes are effective policies for promoting peace and cooperation transboundary and
international water basins.
Keywords— Basin cooperation, basin institutions, capacity building, institutional capacity, Mekong, regional collaboration,
river basin organization, transboundary water, water conflict management.
1. SHARED INTERNATIONAL BASINS – THE
SETTING
There are over 263 international river basins in the
world, covering almost half of the Earth ’ s land surface,
nearly 40 percent of the world ’ s population, and 60
percent global river flow [1]. Surface water,
groundwater, and water quality and the ecosystem are all
interconnected and widely utilized for a multitude of
purposes, ranging from biological, economical, spiritual,
cultural and domestic needs [2]. Over 145 nations are
riparians to one or more international basins in the world.
Some basins, such as the Danube, share up to 17
countries whilst many others share three or more
boundaries between them [3]. Oregon State University ’ s
Transboundary Freshwater Dispute Database (TFDD)
houses over 300 international agreements on
international basins seen in Figure 1, an indication that
cooperation may be prevalent on international
transboundary water issues [4].
Beginning at over 4500 meters elevation in the
Tanggula mountain range in Qinghai province, the
Mekong flows for over 4800 km through China,

Myanmar, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam,
terminating in the South China Sea, draining over

[5]. Thailand and Laos both share the
highest percentage of area in the basin with 23 and 25
percent, respectively, while Laos contributes the greatest
amount of flow (35 percent) [5]. Vietnam has the highest
population density (236 persons/km
2
) and the lowest
percent of basin area (8%), posing potential concerns
with respect to its political influence [6]. The Mekong ’ s
annual flow varies widely based on the monsoon season,
ranging from 78.8 to 475 cubic kilometers dry to rainy
seasons, respectively [7].

The Mekong faces some monumental challenges in the
years to come. Over 21 percent of the basin is eroding
with only 31 percent of its original forests left intact and
only 5 percent under protection [7]. Two percent
population growth over the next 50 years combined with
increasing environmental degradation leads the UNEP to
predict severe and negative impacts in the areas of
stream flow, pollution, loss of habitat, fish populations,
and community health to those who rely on the Mekong
for their livelihoods [7]. What is needed to prepare for
