Conclusions and recommendation<br />

Knowledge of the scope, options and tradeoffs of GBNI, from a technical and socio-economic perspective, is<br />

increasing, but they need further attention in policy development and investment planning when it comes to<br />

increasing water security and resilience. Technologies need to be made more widely accessible and tested<br />

under various contexts, and impacts for further outscaling better understood. This is critical as groundwater<br />

is increasingly relied on for water supply, industry and irrigation. So, assuring these groundwater-based<br />

services, while not undermining the groundwater resource, but in fact purposefully enhancing its services<br />

and sustainability though well-planned and integrated GBNI approaches is key.<br />
