Quentin N2 - The allocation of water across space and time is a key challenge of water governance, with demand and supply often not well matched over time and place.

We highlight the governance principles needed for best practice water pricing and water markets, describe differences across regions, and provide six key water demand governance recommendations, for both Global North and Global South countries.
