Abstract

What is the total value of water? Water is a unique resource that carries multiple benefits and values. Some of these can be estimated through their ‘financial’ contributions in a market economy. Other benefits that are not traded in markets require a different approach to quantify the ‘non-market’ value of water. It is only by understanding both sets of benefits that we can adequately measure, and protect, the total value of water.
