According to the legislation authorizing the Interbasin Compact Charter, a framework for negotiation is an essential component of building a lasting model for addressing water disputes in Colorado (C.R.S. 37-75-105(3)a). A negotiation framework has many different shapes, drawing not only from the most traditional negotiation literature, but also from literature on mediation, facilitation, policy dialogues, consensus processes, decision-rules, and information and fact gathering processes. Collectively, this is a body of literature that addresses the need for collaborative decision-making processes to find solutions to disputes between multiple stakeholders. It identifies tactics for participants to navigate a conflict, move from exploration to the development of proposals, and eventually reach outcomes that benefit one or all parties.born digitalreportsengCopyright and other restrictions may apply.
