The aim of this project was to assist the Royal Thai Government in reforming the approach and methods of water resource management, in accordance with a policy matrix agreed between the government and the ADB.
The reforms will establish a comprehensive unified water management system by reforming the existing policy, legal and institutional framework.
The reforms include:
 |
re-organisation of the Royal Irrigation Department |

devolution / decentralisation |

capacity building |
The project evaluated the water resource policy at three levels:
|
