La sécurité liée à l’eau : gestion des risques et arbitrages
Concept novateur, la sécurité liée à l’eau vise à prendre en compte deux enjeux liés à la gestion de l’eau : fournir un volume suffisant d’eau de qualité satisfaisante pour l’ensemble des usages (y compris pour les écosystèmes) et limiter les risques liés aux inondations et aux sécheresses. L’adoption d’une telle perspective permet de révéler des arbitrages dans le choix des politiques publiques, qui portent sur les risques ou sur les usages de l’eau (domestique, agricole, industriel ou énergétique). De plus, cette approche transversale par gestion de risques permet d’analyser, au sein d’un même cadre, le sujet des inondations et la gestion de l’eau par usages (y compris écosystèmes)…

Water security : Principles, perspectives and practices
The purpose of this book is to present an overview of the latest research, policy, practitioner, academic and international thinking on water security—an issue that, like water governance a few years ago, has developed much policy awareness and momentum with a wide range of stakeholders. As a concept it is open to multiple interpretations, and the authors here set out the various approaches to the topic from different perspectives.

Greening household behaviour
Developing growth strategies that promote greener lifestyles requires a good understanding of the factors that affect people’s behaviour towards the environment. Recent OECD work based on periodic surveys of more than 10 000 households across a number of countries and areas represents a breakthrough by providing a common framework to collect unique empirical evidence for better policy design This publication presents a data overview of the most recent round of the survey implemented in five areas (energy, food, transport, waste, and water) and 11 countries: Australia, Canada, Chile, France, Israel, Japan, Korea, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland…
