Towards new forms of water governance to improve indigenous inclusion. 330 $aIn 2018, a few months before the first referendum for full sovereignty, the government of New Caledonia launched the co-design of the country's first water policy based on a broad consultation that involved 1 out of 600 New Caledonians, the locally so-called ?Shared Water Policy?. The book both presents and assesses the original and broad participatory process used to build the new water policy. It does so by crossing different points of view (government, local managers and customary authorities). The book is also devoted to bridging the gap between customary land studies and water policy. It seeks a way to weave water representations and customary water management practices into the new policy. This experience in a unique decolonisation complex context will inspire policy makers, academics, managers working on participatory methodologies for more inclusive water policy and governance processes, especially in countries where indigenous populations and legal pluralism orders coexist. 410 0$aGlobal Issues in Water Policy,$x2211-0658 ;$v32 606 $aWater 606 $aHydrology 606 $aSocial sciences 606 $aEcology 606 $aHuman geography 606 $aBiology 606 $aWater 606 $aSociety 606 $aEnvironmental Sciences 606 $aHuman Geography 606 $aBiological Sciences 615 0$aWater. 615 0$aHydrology. 615 0$aSocial sciences. 615 0$aEcology. 615 0$aHuman geography. 615 0$aBiology. 615 14$aWater. 615 24$aSociety. 615 24$aEnvironmental Sciences. 615 24$aHuman Geography. 615 24$aBiological Sciences. 676 $a551.48 700 $aLejars$b Caroline$01766646 701 $aBouard$b Séverine$01285128 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911011650203321 996 $aWater Policy in New Caledonia$94400530 997 $aUNINA
