Conference Object Evolution of Transboundary Water Politics in the Euphrates-Tigris Basin(The Mershon Center for International Security Studies, Middle East Studies Center at the Ohio State University,, 2016) Kibaroğlu, AyşegülThe purpose of this two-day workshop is to uncover the intersections between technical and traditional knowledge bases, and address the misunderstanding that arise due to conflicting epistemic perspectives. The objective of the workshop is to uncover cases in which local wisdom has the potential to aid proper implementation of technical solutions, as well as the pitfalls that should be avoided. Current issues, such as the impending evacuation around the Tigris due to issues with the Mosul dam, make this workshop particularly salient.Article Citation - WoS: 55Citation - Scopus: 64Water–energy–food Nexus in a Transboundary Context: the Euphrates–tigris River Basin as a Case Study(Taylor & Francis, 2015) Gürsoy, Sezin Iba; Kibaroğlu, AyşegülThe interlinkage between water, energy and food security and its transboundary relevance is becoming increasingly important. The paper analyses the evolution of transboundary water resources management in the Euphrates–Tigris basin with specific reference to interlinkages between water, food and energy policies at national and transboundary levels, and it explores how the policy shifts at the highest decision-making level have served to produce synergies for cooperation among the riparians or vice versa.Article Citation - Scopus: 28An Analysis of the Causes of Water Crisis in the Euphrates-Tigris River Basin(Springer, 2014) Kibaroğlu, Ayşegül; Maden, Tuğba EvrimThe Euphrates-Tigris river basin now faces severe water crisis that have been fueled by national development projects in a mainly water-scarce region. Increasing demand-induced scarcity is further complicated by a history of international tensions between the three riparian nations of Turkey, Syria and Iraq and has occurred in a changing climate. Water is a critical security issue for these nations. This essay analyses the causes of the water crises by reviewing the historical hydropolitical international relations of the region.
