粗略地浏览一下关于水治理的文献就会发现，利益攸关方的参与长期以来一直被认为是健全治理进程的一个组成部分。然而，仔细研究文献发现，除了这一一般性主张之外，缺乏关于参与进程如何促进水治理目标的循证评估。本文通过介绍经济合作与发展组织（OECD）关于利益相关者参与包容性水治理的研究的主要结果和政策指导来解决这一研究差距。这项研究采用了全面的方法，包括对全世界215个利益攸关方群体进行的调查，以及单独进行的69项关于水资源管理具体利益攸关方参与倡议的案例研究。这篇文章还分享了在经合组织水治理倡议中让利益攸关方参与的经验和教训，该倡议是2013年创建的国际多利益攸关方政策论坛，旨在分享各级水治理的政策和实践经验。我们希望，这项研究将被用来促进和丰富关于利益攸关方注重成果的参与的必要条件的讨论，并据此指导决策者。
A cursory glance at the literature on water governance reveals that stakeholder engagement has long been considered an integral part of sound governance processes. However, a closer look at the literature reveals that, beyond this general assertion, there is a lack of evidence-based assessment on how engagement processes contribute to water governance objectives. This article addresses this research gap by presenting key findings and policy guidance from a study by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) on Stakeholder Engagement for Inclusive Water Governance. This study employed comprehensive methods, including a survey administered to 215 stakeholder groups worldwide and separately, 69 case studies of specific stakeholder engagement initiatives on water management. This article also shares the experiences and lessons that have emerged from engaging stakeholders in the OECD Water Governance Initiativean international multi-stakeholder policy forum created in 2013 to share policy and practical experiences on water governance at different levels. We hope this research will be used to stimulate and enrich discussions about the necessary conditions for results-oriented stakeholder engagement, and to guide decision makers accordingly.
