Chapter 1 examines the different funding needs for transboundary water cooperation, management and development. It differentiates between the core costs incurred through the mere existence of an institutionalized cooperation mechanism and the programme costs related to the development and implementation of basin management and development activities. It shows that core costs are relatively similar across joint bodies, yet the amount spent on these can vary considerably and is largely determined by the size of the RBO’s secretariat; itself determined by the RBO’s mandate and functions. Similarly, the greater the implementation mandate of a RBO, the higher its programme costs. Both cost dimensions also change significantly over time, as highlighted by the examples below.
