520    This book presents the findings of a team of scientists 
       and practitioners who have been working on the project 
       "Benefits of Governance in Drought Adaptation" (in short: 
       the DROP project), which is included in the European 
       Union's INTERREG IVB NWE programme. The DROP governance 
       team developed a Governance Assessment Tool (GAT), which 
       allows the governance setting of a given region for 
       planning and realizing drought adaptation measures to be 
       assessed. Based on this assessment, recommendations can be
       developed for regional water authorities concerning how to
       operate most effectively towards increased drought 
       resilience in this context. The GAT has been applied to 
       six regions in Northwest Europe: Twente and Salland in the
       Netherlands, Eifel-Ruhr in Germany, Brittany in France, 
       Somerset in the United Kingdom, and Flanders in Belgium. 
       These regions are subject to drought aspects related to 
       nature, agriculture and freshwater. This book will aid 
       regional water authorities and other relevant stakeholders
       interested in governance assessment, whether that context 
       is about water, more specifically about drought or 
       flooding events, or other environmental issues. Further, 
       the GAT can and has also been applied more broadly to a 
       range of governance contexts for water management and 
       beyond.
