International government action
Australia is at the leading edge in its approach to water resource management. Our approach is to seek integrated management of natural resources, and foster competitive, innovative and self-reliant agricultural industries.
The Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts is working internationally with other Australian Government agencies and program partners to promote sustainable water management, and to demonstrate the benefits of Australia's approach.
