The policy brief Natural Capital Accounting for Water Resources in Lao PDR highlights the critical role of water in the country’s economic development, particularly for hydropower and agriculture. It presents findings from Water Supply and Use and Water Resource Asset accounts, showing rapid growth in water abstraction and the dominance of hydropower use, while agriculture remains the key consumptive sector. The brief emphasizes the need for improved data systems, basin-level analysis, and integrated water management to address climate variability, ensure sustainable resource use, and support evidence-based policy decisions.
