Approximately 40% of the global population lives in tranboundary water basins, emphasizing the need for cooperation and harmonization of policies. Hence, the need for “Hydrodiplomacy” rose under the framework of sustainable development and international cooperation. Especially in Greece, management of transboundary rivers is of major importance, since roughly 25% of the country’s renewable resources are “imported” as in four out of the total five transboundary rivers Greece is the downstream country. The lack of transboundary water agreements between Greece and its neighboring countries (except with Bulgaria) is affecting greatly the international cooperation and the status of the water resources. Hence, the implementation of appropriate methodologies is crucial for the promotion of the integrated management of these areas. This study refers to five transboundary basins in Northern Greece and introduces the principles of “Hydrodiplomacy” in their management.</p></abstract><publication_date><month>04</month><day>29</day><year>2013</year></publication_date><pages><first_page>287</first_page><last_page>294</last_page></pages><publisher_item><identifier id_type="pii">451</identifier></publisher_item><doi_data><doi>10.30955/gnj.000451</doi><timestamp>1713576443</timestamp><resource>https://journal.gnest.org/publication/451</resource></doi_data></journal_article></journal></body></doi_batch> </div>
