The CPWF Project PN50 “Enhancing multi-scale water governance” was a flagship activity of the Mekong Program on Water, Environment Resilience (M-POWER). Its main goal was to help improve livelihood security, human and ecosystem health in the Mekong Region through democratizing water governance. This was pursued through critical research and direct engagement with stakeholders involved in managing fisheries, floods, irrigation, hydropower, watersheds, urban water works and integrated water 

management at various scales. In each policy domain we identified common, shared, problems with current patterns of governance and made suggestions on how they could be addressed.
