SAP for Mekong river commision-2006/2010
- This document is the Strategic Plan 2006-2010 of the Mekong River Commission (MRC). As the MRC is an inter-governmental body, this Strategic Plan is first and foremost a product of the MRC’s four Member States. However, as stakeholder participation is a foundation principle of the MRC and IWRM, an extensive consultation process was carried out during the formulation of this Strategic Plan which included Member States, line agencies, donors, NGOs, and civil society. This document reflects to the highest degree possible the feedback received from our stakeholders during this process. The consultation process is outlined below with major milestones highlighted.

Annual Mekong Flood Report 2008
- Conventionally, floods and flooding are perceived as geophysical hazards within a common framework of natural disasters that also covers storms and hurricanes, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, landslides and tsunami. In each case, socioeconomic losses and damage increase exponentially with event magnitude and as a function of civil exposure and vulnerability. Such hazards are perceived as random events that have entirely negative impacts, ignoring the fact that floods also have a positive ecological and socioeconomic function.
