This special issue therefore aims to contribute to a better understanding of the various roles data and systems analyses play in transboundary water governance, and to provide insights in the interplay between information and (emerging) technologies, knowledge and power.

This call for papers invites two types of contributions, following Water International’s guidelines:

research articles, being studies of high scientific quality drawing on empirical evidence, and
technical notes that include experimental reports, commentaries and case descriptions.
Practitioners are explicitly invited to share insights on the role of data and information in everyday transboundary water governance through technical notes.

With the intention to contribute to fairer publication policies, limited funding for open access publication for contributions especially from authors from low- and lower-middle-income countries is available, also through the DUPC2 programme of IHE Delft, funded by the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs (www.capacityforwaterdiplomacy.org).
