Why Worry about Water Ethics?
• Water management decisions are driven by values
(ethics) which are often tacit (i.e. not recognized
consciously)
• Current water management is unsustainable
• Awareness about the operative values is an important
step for achieving sustainable management
• Identify the values, then reflect on them, then try to
adopt better ones.
• “You can’t manage what you don’t know”

What do we mean by “Water Ethics”?
