This lecture, for whose invitation I am deeply honoured, is inspired by the diverse communities which are vibrating around the needs and opportunities provided by water as one of the most sensitive natural resources for the existence and survival of the humanity. The idea to associate myself to this communication is an opportunity to acknowledge how timely it is to dig into the legal components of water governance as an integral part of our livelihood. Also, to scrutinize the studies devoted to water and the equitable and rational use criterion, in conjunction with other agreed principles in the ambit of transboundary watercourses.
