New OECD report: “Making Water Reform Happen in Mexico”

The OECD report: “Making Water Reform Happen in Mexico” will be launched on 7 January, 2013.

The report provides evidence-based assessment and policy recommendations in support of Mexico’s water reform.
It analyses implementation bottlenecks and identifies good practices in four key areas considered as essential drivers for change in the water sector of Mexico : multi-level and river basin governance; economic efficiency and financial sustainability; and regulatory functions for water supply and sanitation.

This report is the result of a one-year policy dialogue between the OECD and Mexico, after the adoption of the 2030 Water Agenda as a strategic and long-term vision for Mexico’s water sector.

The report was discussed in policy workshops between OECD experts and Mexican stakeholders, and submitted to several OECD bodies and committees.

The process also engaged high-profile peer reviewers and experts from Australia, Italy, Brazil and the United Kingdom.

Advance sales copies of the report can be ordered online by 22 November 2012 at OECD Advanced Sales Online.
