Abstract The Catchment Based Approach (CaBA) was established in 2013 to drive collaborative water management across England. Globally unique in its national coverage, CaBA encompasses 106 river catchment partnerships that either incorporate or work with a range of cross-sector partner organisations including environmental organisations, Government agencies, water companies, local authorities, businesses and civil society. The partnerships work through consensus to build social capital and deliver environmental improvements. Because of the variety of stakeholders and interests represented, partnerships attract a range of funds, multiplying the core monies they receive from Government. A National Support group, several thematic working groups and a team of technical specialists help to build expertise within partnerships. Supported by data and evidence, including that derived through citizen science, the partnerships have developed catchment plans that capture priorities for action. Challenges of legitimacy, funding, integration with England’s wider water management framework, and the monitoring of outcomes remain. Future opportunities exist, including closer alignment with academia and the potential for CaBA to undertake a key role in delivering the UK Government’s 25-Year Environment Plan. Several lessons learnt from the CaBA approach may be applicable internationally.

英格兰的协作水资源管理——基于流域的方法概述

摘要 基于流域的方法 (CaBA) 成立于 2013 年，旨在推动整个英格兰的水资源协作管理。CaBA 的全国覆盖范围在全球独一无二，包括 106 个河流集水区合作伙伴关系，这些合作伙伴关系包括环境组织、政府机构、水务公司、地方当局、企业和民间社会等一系列跨部门合作伙伴组织或与之合作。伙伴关系通过共识建立社会资本并实现环境改善。由于所代表的利益相关者和利益的多样性，伙伴关系吸引了一系列资金，使他们从政府获得的核心资金成倍增加。一个国家支持小组、几个专题工作组和一个技术专家小组帮助建立伙伴关系中的专业知识。在数据和证据（包括通过公民科学获得的数据和证据）的支持下，合作伙伴关系制定了涵盖行动优先事项的流域计划。合法性、资金、与英格兰更广泛的水资源管理框架的整合以及结果监测方面的挑战仍然存在。未来的机会存在，包括与学术界更紧密的联系以及 CaBA 在实现英国政府的 25 年环境计划方面发挥关键作用的潜力。从 CaBA 方法中吸取的一些经验教训可能适用于国际。包括与学术界的紧密联系以及 CaBA 在实现英国政府的 25 年环境计划方面发挥关键作用的潜力。从 CaBA 方法中吸取的一些经验教训可能适用于国际。包括与学术界的紧密联系以及 CaBA 在实现英国政府的 25 年环境计划方面发挥关键作用的潜力。从 CaBA 方法中吸取的一些经验教训可能适用于国际。
