Civil engineers, earth and environmental scientists, social scientists, diplomats, and ethicists take the 1948 United Nations Human Rights Declaration as a starting point for exploring the actual and potential role of ethics in water policy worldwide. The 19 papers cover some traditional cultural approaches to water ethics; some ethical aspects of new water management; water as a human right and economic resource; whether there is a link between water and poverty; ethics of groundwater use; ethics of water ownership and management; corruption, transparency, and participation in the water sector; and ethical aspects of managing unforeseen and extreme events such as floods and droughts.
