Regional Transboundary Diagnostic Analysis of the Amazon Basin

1st Edition Edited by OTCA Brasilia, 2018 The Transboundary Diagnostic Analysis (TDA) of the Amazon Basin1 is a methodology to (i) Identify and assess priority transboundary environmental and socio-economic issues related to Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) in the region, and (ii) Determine their direct, indirect and root causes, in addition to their socio-economic and environmental impacts. Thus, the Regional TDA provides the basis for the formulation of the SAP. This Regional TDA is organized in four parts: (1) Priority Transboundary Problems in the Amazon Basin, (2) Impacts and Causal Chain Analysis of the Transboundary Problems, (3) Regional Strategic Lines of Response, and (4) Conclusions and Recommendations.
