The Global Virtual-Water Network: Social, Economic and Environmental Implications, University of Trento (2013 –2016)

The research project aims to examine the drivers and implications of virtual water flows. In this respect, the framework of international trade rules will be examined with a view to including them in the analysis of the determinants of the flows of virtual water. Furthermore, the principles and rules of international water law such as the principle of equitable use and no-harm rule will be considered as they may have a bearing on the international trade of virtual water.
