Wrote for South Asian Voices & The Third Pole on the need for greater imagination to transform how we think about regional water & climate security.

We have plenty of innovation in India, it's time we channeled some of that to our shared river basins
#watersecurity

#ClimateCrisis

Regional collaboration and transboundary technology & information sharing is vital for reducing loss and damage caused by climate change.

When it comes to water security, South Asia lags, with less than min integration. However on climate & energy there is some measure of cooperation which can be built upon to include water.

It's not that we can't do it, we seem to lack imagination of how to!
