The eight principles seem to constitute a reasonably comprehensive framework, but one factor appears to be missing: incentive. What are the incentives for the people "on the ground" to move to a more resilient approach? What are the incentives for the institutions to change their policies to move to a more resilient approach? When basin-wide resilience conflicts with sub-basin priorities, what incentive is provided to encourage trade-offs to meet basin-level goals?
