Introduction to International Water Law

What is international law? What is the nature of international water law? This lecture aims to answer these questions by highlighting the differences and linkages between international and national water law, and continental and customary law. The lecture also touches on the sources of international law and treaty making—and international law and treaties as foundations for establishing international organizations (such as river basin organizations). The lecture also provides definitions of the different types of transboundary waters commonly used and referred to in law.
